Hi Serguei,

Looks good.

1. In modules.cpp, the first assert in get_named_module() has the wrong 
function name:

825 assert(ModuleEntryTable::javabase_defined(),
826 "Attempt to call *get_module_by_package_name* before java.base is 
defined");


2. Also, is a check needed to ensure that package_str is not null?

3. Is the ResourceMark(THREAD) needed at line 824?

Thanks, Harold
