Yes, a simple workaround would be better than doing MR JARs at this point. We have >50 Mb JARs as it is, MR JARs would be at least twice as that if we ship JDK <=8 and JDK >=9 classes in the same package. > So what is the javac command that you are using?

What are the drawbacks for enabling this? I can easily enable that globally for the entire project, but that would compile all project files as if in the jdk.unsupported module? I guess that does not matter if I don't produce/deploy the module as the build artifact. (Aside: by reading the javac source code, I discovered -XDnoModules, which also works, but hidden, unsupported, fragile, and scary) Thanks, -Aleksey
