This looks like JDK-8277681 [1]. Not an issue when using the jdeps tool 
on the command line but a potential issue when running it "in-process" 
several times with ToolProvider. Can you bring this to core-libs-dev for 
discussion?  Mandy has already assigned it to herself and may be 
planning to replace it with a per-invocation map to allow concurrent 
usage rather than clearing the map to allow sequential usage.
