I went through the webrev and it looks good to me (educational too as I 
only had a superficial understanding of the ct.sym before this).

In initProfiles then this might be less code to get the right path:

     Path home = Paths.get(System.getProperty("java.home"));
     if (home.endsWith("jre"))
         home = home.getParent();
     Path ctsym  = home.resolve("lib").resolve("ct.sym");

For consistency then the constants with the annotation types should 
probably be uppercase.

You've moved profiles.properties into the test tree to be used by the 
test. I think that is okay for the types that are tested but one thing 
to mention is that these properties file is out of date in a few places now.
