In your previous post you used env LC_ALL=kk_KZ.pt154 java Hello.java. Would it be possible to repeat that with JDK 17 and the main-line (latest JDK 18 EA build is okay). I'm wondering if you see the NPE.

In any case, our next step here will be to have fallback saved during early startup so that file system and other places don't do the lookup. This seems the sanest way to avoid the recursive initialisation issue.
