Issue with Graal on JDK 1.8.0_40: relocation error: symbol JVM_GetResourceLookupCacheURLs not defined

[Stefan Marr]

Hi:

I got an issue trying to build Graal on a new Ubuntu system, with JDK 1.8.0_40.

After compiling without problems, I see the following error when trying to start the VM:

~/tmp/GraalVM$ ./mx.sh —vm server vm -version
/home/smarr/tmp/GraalVM/jdk1.8.0_40/product/bin/java: relocation error: /home/smarr/tmp/GraalVM/jdk1.8.0_40/product/jre/lib/amd64/libjava.so: symbol JVM_GetResourceLookupCacheURLs, version SUNWprivate_1.1 not defined in file libjvm.so with link time reference

Any idea how to fix this, or how to work around it?

Java version details below.

Thanks
Stefan
