It feels like a corruption issue, either that or somehow a type in the unnamed package was loaded really early (before java.base is defined) and has somehow been patched to in the java.base module.

Please keep me posted on this as well, sounds like it could be a bootstrapping issue in the JVM where we patch classes that are loaded before java.base is defined.
