Filling the Packager gap

[Sverre Moe]

Any chance of getting the fix for JDK-8210759 backported to JDK 11? I
remember reading the OpenJDK will be patched up to 2023 (while Oracle JDK
will be patched up to 2026).
We deliver software that our customers could be running for a decade or
more. The LTS is the version we will then target when we move away from
Java 8.
