Can you run with `-verbose`? I assume the issue is that 
nonmodule.NonModuleClass is being loaded from a module in your mlib 
directory and from the error, this version of NonModuleClass does not 
public static void main method.

(In time then the launcher should fail when nonmodule.NonModuleClass is 
loaded from a named module when an unnamed module is expected. The 
reason it doesn't tied into a complicated issue around boot cycle builds 
that should get resolved in time).
