Packages

Yes - it should work. importClass and few other rhino specific 
extensions have been moved to "mozilla_compat.js".

     load("nashorn:mozilla_compat.js");
     var util = Packages.java.util;
     importClass(util.HashMap);
     var m = new HashMap();

You can grab a recent jdk8 binary from 
https://jdk8.java.net/download.html. There is a shell tool called "jjs" 
in jdk/bin directory. Please do grab and play with it. And please report 
bugs/issues/problem you face with your javascript code.
