No, it's has not been removed, at least not yet. For now, 
`--permit-illegal-access` is an alias for `--illegal-access=warn` in the 
Jigsaw EA builds.

I think the issue you are running into is missing or incorrect version 
detection in the standalone JAXB implementation. From what I can tell 
then it relies on the InaccessibleObjectExceptionto to detect it is on 
JDK 9. I'm sure that can be easily fixed.

Mark will be sending a summary/update on the proposal soon. It's 
probably best to wait for that write-up.
