I have uploaded two patches for review to allow GWT to run under a Java 9 vm.
https://gwt-review.googlesource.com/#/c/19000/ https://gwt-review.googlesource.com/#/c/19001/ The main issue is (as noted by James) that the class loading has been revamped and GWT can no longer assume that the class loaders are UrlClassLoaders. The idea is first to be able to run GWT on a Java 9 vm compiling Java 8 sources.
