However, JDK11 doesn't support specifying "--date". This appears to be needed in order to make the test reliable. The hashes of two jmod files may differ if the timestamp differs.

It is a feature that comes with a CSR and might not be worthwile doing for the JDK11 updates release. For now, the test should be marked as @intermittent until [JDK-8276766](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8276766) is brought to JDK11 updates.

JBS approval received.
