I didn't find any open bugs that seemed relevant (could be I just didn't recognize such).  Whatever it is seems likely to be unrelated to any of the other changes in this PR; it would have been / would be better to deal with it separately.

It's related to the JEP-223 version build numbers, which the original commit couldn't get to work due to a preprocessor trick not working with the now unsupported 2017. I just felt it could be included here out of convenience, but I guess I can split it off into another change if required
