If someone is porting OpenJDK to an environment that doesn't support 
shared libraries then there is likely going to be significant porting 
effort and the build changes are likely going to be very platform specific.

However, as you picked out a specific statement from the JEP then I 
wonder if perhaps you might be asking something else. Maybe you are 
asking about environments that support shared libraries and for whatever 
reason you'd like to link your library with the VM?
