When run with OpenJDK 11, which is the default JRE in buster, I get an
exception trace that ends with:
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

This is upstream bug 536730, for which a fix is available on the 2.6
maintenance branch. (It would have made it into 2.6.7 if this had been
released.) I have verified that cherry-picking the fix solves this particular
issue.
More comprehensive support for Java 11, including but not limited to the fix
for this bug, is in EclipseLink 2.7.2 and later.
