What should the relationship between ports and developers of large projects be?

[Maurizio Cimadamore]

Hi Andrew,
JEP 424 has already been integrated into mainline. As far as I know 
there were no issues as a result of that integration, as the code for 
the foreign API already has the required stubs so that it will compile 
in all the ports (even though the `Linker` might not run, but that's ok, 
at least until some effort is put into providing an implementation of 
the `Linker` class in those ports).

Cheers
Maurizio
