Seems natural to me.  Analogous to the -testjdk and -compilejdk flags of
jtreg.  In the transition-to-modules world it seems more important, since
it becomes harder to come up with the right -bootclasspath flag (or
whatever flag follows it).

Maybe "jrt" could be generalized.  Instead of simply "the" java run time of
the current jdk, it could additionally be a function jrt(jredir) that
somehow gives you the runtime classes of any jre, in a way that javac can
understand.
