Failure building openjfx 9-dev against jdk9 build fails

[Sven Reimers]

Hi,

I get the following error trying to compile latest 9-dev from openjfx
against latest jdk9:

Reason seems to be the change

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/jdk/rev/e1888730a57e

Could not find the issue in the JBS - maybe may jira fu was not good
enough...

So should we build 9-dev against jdk8u-60?

Seems I must have missed something
