This code fragment tests if java.base opens a package to 
CachedClass.class.getModule(). Can you say which package CachedClass is 
in? I ask because I would have expected to see:

    String.class.getModule().isOpen("java.lang", 
CachedClass.class.getModule());

to test if java.base opens java.lang to the Groovy module.
