Only in an open build; Oracle's closed code includes jvm.h frequently
enough via other (closed) headers that our supported platforms only
needed a very small number (like 1-3, I forget exactly) additional
includes.  Fortunately, jprt includes some pure open builds in its
testing.  I eventually got tired of adding includes and re-running
jprt, and just mass added the includes.

print_native_stack seems to be the "portable" and less verbose
alternative to os::platform_print_native_stack.  VMError::report
selects between them based on requested verbosity.  So VMError seems
like a better place than os.

I’m hoping you are not asking for that to be added to this change.

Thanks.
