A variant of this problem is under consideration, which may address your
use case.
In the meantime, the workaround is to make sure there is no evidence of
java.base on the module source path.

I agree with that, but that's not my use case.
I want to add/override files to java.base (an existing module) with
--patch-module when i compile several other modules with --module-source-path,
i think this should be allowed, otherwise it will be hard to patch the JDK and
see the effect on several modules.

Here, i want to add files to an existing modules (java.base) and those files are
in output/classes not in src.
You currently can't add files with --patch-module to a module found with
--module-source-path.
