Ron sync'ed up the loom repo to jdk-18+2 a few days ago. We try to sync 
up weekly but sometimes the merges are complex and take effort to get 
all the builds working again. It's rare to not have conflicts that need 
fixing so I don't think we can automate it. I assume we'll pick up the 
changes when we sync up to jdk-18+3. We're not seeing JDK-8269138 but I 
duplicate it if I try to build with ShenandoahGC, so I guess this is why 
you run into it. I don't think we have any objection to bringing into 
some changes from the main line but jdk+18+3 should be promoted in the 
next day or so.
