I think there may be a misunderstanding here, AFAICS they are using reflection to remove the final-ness of a field in their own classes, not modifying anything in Class or Field.
That's the outcome. To get there, they call a private method getDeclaredFields0 on j.l.Class and also change the value of the private "modifiers" field in jlr.Field. It's just not tenable to hack into private members like this. Martin seems to have done the right thing and removed it.
