You first mail had:

Error occurred during initialization of boot layer
java.lang.module.FindException: Module org.objectweb.asm.util not found, 
required by fr.umlv.lazystaticfinal

which suggests that org.objectweb.asm.util wasn't observable. Running 
-Xlog:init-debug should have reveal more for that case.

It looks like you've got past that now and are hitting the same 
VerifyError. In the launcher, the resources corresponding to the two 
cases are java.launcher.cls.error7 and java.launcher.module.error5 so I 
would expect the exception message from the VerifyError to be printed in 
both. I suspect you'll need to run with -verbose and look at the class 
loading order to give some hint as to whether the message may be getting 
lost.
