I do not think that the workaround to create a Lookup object by reflection
works with 9 given that java.lang.invoke is not declared as an open package.
John Rose has proposed to add a method to get a private Lookup object through
sun.misc.Unsafe but as far as i know, this proposal goes nowhere.
I think we got a good place with MethodHandles.privateLookupIn. It's not
going to allow you get a Lookup with private access to types in core
modules such as java.base but it may be useful for some cases.
