Hi Zheka,
this branch demonstrates what I describe:
https://github.com/CodeFX-org/demo-jpms-monitor/tree/break-cyclic-dependency-compile-time
Run `multi-compile.sh && run.sh` and you will see the compiler happily
creating the modules whereas the runtime complains about the cyclic
dependency. Maybe I'm doing something weird without noticing? (I tried
it on 9.0.1, 9.0.4, 10, and 11-ea+7.)
so long ... Nicolai
