Thanks Ed, that works for me either.

Ed, in case you haven't made it yet:

I manually applied 2 parts of the patch to graal sources from Andrew's repo:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~aph/jaotc/jdk-hs-1/src/jdk.internal.vm.compiler/share/classes/org.graalvm.compiler.asm.aarch64/src/org/graalvm/compiler/asm/aarch64/AArch64Assembler.java.patch
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~aph/jaotc/jdk-hs-1/src/jdk.internal.vm.compiler/share/classes/org.graalvm.compiler.asm.aarch64/src/org/graalvm/compiler/asm/aarch64/AArch64MacroAssembler.java.patch
We use those built modules as a replacement for ones from JDK but the 
changes are not present in aarch64-branch-overflows.

Now java.base can be AOT'ed on machines we have.
In the logs I see a lot (~37k) of failed compilations with a message 
like following:

Error: Failed compilation: 
com.sun.crypto.provider.GCMParameters.engineToString()Ljava/lang/String;: 
org.graalvm.compiler.graph.GraalGraphError: 
org.graalvm.compiler.debug.GraalError: Emitting code to load an object 
address is not currently supported on aarch64
