official compiler for Solaris jdk9 build?

[Phil Race]

E_STATEMENT_NOT_REACHED is a favourite of SunStudio and
I recently fixed one such warning (in closed code so I can't point to it 
here)
but I did not see this one .. however I was using jprt and locally
Solaris 10 SPARC. So perhaps it is something to do with the headers ?

Ironically the warning is apparently due to an attempt to suppress
a previous warning :-(
..
     _exit(-1);
     return 0;  /* Suppress warning "no return value from function" */
}
..

-phil.
