Builds fail due to use of preview features & removed arguments

Hi,
As of the merging of Records into JDK proper, source code compiling
fails using a standard command line of:
bash configure --disable-warnings-as-errors
which fails with:
/home/ty/Downloads/jdk-master/src/java.compiler/share/classes/javax/lang/model/util/AbstractElementVisitor14.java:30:
warning: [preview] RecordComponentElement is an API that is part of a
preview feature
import javax.lang.model.element.RecordComponentElement;
^
/home/ty/Downloads/jdk-master/src/java.compiler/share/classes/javax/lang/model/util/SimpleElementVisitor14.java:30:
warning: [preview] RecordComponentElement is an API that is part of a
preview feature
import javax.lang.model.element.RecordComponentElement;
^
error: warnings found and -Werror specified
...which was not the case in 13. I'm assuming this is happening now
because JDK source code actually utilizes the feature preview where as
with other preview features before simply existed but weren't used in
source.
I've been told by a JDK developer from the Project Panama mailing list
that it *does* compile for them, but I'm not aware of the command line
arguments that JDK developers use. Is this documented somewhere? Should
it be failing by default like this?
Additionally, the argument --with-libclang-include-aux seems to have
been deprecated in 14. This, as was told to me by a Panama JDK
developer, is needed to specify clang headers for custom source builds.
What is the correct way to specify those now in 14?
