It looks to me that GraphicsEnvironment.getHeadlessProperty should be 
consulting platform specific code to determine if we are headless. The 
Solaris/Linux implementation could check the DISPLAY variable and could 
also check if the headful toolkit is available.

In the module library then AWT's libraries might be located in somewhere 
like modules/sun.desktop/8.0/lib and it would be best if the VM didn't 
have any dependency on the location (which in this example includes both 
the module name and version).
