In this case then I assume the exception has more detail to explain 
this. This may be a case where a bug needs to be submitted to Neo4j so 
that the maintainers look at this usage. In the mean-time, then the 
-XaddExports option can be used a workaround to keep existing versions 
working as before.

Is this the Dagger annotation processor? In that case then you might 
need `-J-addmods -Jjava.annotations.common` (getting the command line 
right when there is white space is awkward but we have an update coming 
that will make this easier).
