All of Java source are compiled by a JDK 10 build, which is specified by 
jtreg option "-jdk". Other testing JDKs, including 6 and 7, just use the 
.class files on runtime.
That's why the below line exists in Compatibility.java,
32  * @compile -source 1.6 -target 1.6 Server.java Client.java JdkUtils.java

If a feature, like ALPN and SNI, is not supported, such method would not 
be called on runtime.
