My concern (as discussed in https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/19478#issuecomment-2278421931) is  that these runtime changes for static JDK can't be tested even they are relatively simple, without the the actual linking change. Any timeline for the static linking changes?

Yes, they can. This is just a pure refactoring of existing code. I have deliberately kept out addition of the new places where static linking exceptions are needed in the code.
