JDK9 build 119 fails on Ubuntu Gnome 16.04

[Thomas Kruse]

Hi,

I tested the latest build 119 of JDK9. I was curious to try out the
WebKit update, but even a very simple JavaFX class threw the following
exception. I tried to force GTK2, since I suspected GTK3 support as the
culprit, but this did not help.

java -Djdk.gtk.version=2 -Djdk.gtk.verbose=true -cp target/classes
sample.Basic
