> Please review this PR which restores the correct exception message when the current working directory can not be found during java startup in `initPhase1`.
>
> Both MacOS and Linux are expected to fail with `java.lang.Error: Properties init: Could not determine current working directory` if the _user.dir_ system property cannot be initialized. Currently, MacOS now fails with `java.lang.InternalError: platform encoding not initialized` and Linux fails with `java.lang.InternalError: null property: user.dir` which are both unexpected messages.
>
> In `System.c`, `Java_jdk_internal_util_SystemProps_00024Raw_platformProperties` calls `GetJavaProperties(JNIEnv *env)` which throws an internal error (with an appropriate message) for Unix platforms when the current working directory cannot be found. However, this exception is never checked and thus unexpected failures occur later. NULL should be returned after the exception is thrown, so that the initialization fails with the expected error when the return value is checked.
