The @modules looks fine but since rmic -Xnew is incomplete, not
supported/documented, and currently broken, then maybe we should just
remove -Xnew in JDK 9. The right thing of course is to just re-implement
rmic but it hardly seems worth it when the only real usage these days is
for generating CORBA IDL or stubs.
