Sync up with jdk9?

I tried to sync with tag 135 of upstream, but couldn't build it. It
fails with:

javac: invalid flag: -modulesourcepath
Usage: javac <options> <source files>
use --help for a list of possible options

This happens both with jdk8 as boot-jdk and jdk9-b134 as boot-jdk.
Impossible chicken+egg?
