I don’t see modules.xml updated from this webrev:

Please update <top>/modules.xml to export java.awt.desktop if present (it’s an interim solution in JDK 9 that will be replaced with module-info.java as Phil points out).  When we merge jake with jdk9, we make appropriate changes based on the changeset in modules.xml.
