Hi Rachel,

Looks good.  One minor comment:

src/share/vm/classfile/classLoaderData.cpp
- line #565, since you construct the unnamed module via a method in 
ModuleEntryTable, please consider adding another method to delete it.  
That way you can put in that method a comment explaining why it does not 
need to have "unlink_entry" called on it as well since it is not in the 
hashtable.

Thanks,
Lois
