I'm using wscompile to generate JAX-RPC server side stubs based on a
WSDL in a legacy application. If there is a better way to approach this
(without breaking existing clients), I would love to learn about it.

It is actually using reflection to execute com.sun.tools.javac.Main, but
the compilation arguments are missing the --add-modules parameter.

Having had to look at this again, I had to realize that wscompile is in
no way actually part of the JDK, it's coming from the jaxrpc-impl
project. I must have gotten confused by wsgen/wsimport/wscompile at one
point... :(

//So it does look I was missing something glaringly obvious in the end.

Thanks for your time, and sorry about the rookie mistake.
