The dependency is unfortunate. Can you suggest how JVMCI platform beans could participate in platform bean registration without the dependency?

Anything in Lab’s Graal compiler is destined for JDK Graal so the distinction is only temporary at best.

Not sure I follow - there is currently no such directory src/jdk.internal.vm.ci/share/classes/src

Graal compiler (jdk.internal.vm.compiler) provides its own MBean(s) - however currently there is no way to register it "on demand". JDK9 already contains support for collecting platform MBeans from various modules. We just need to expose Graal MBean through JVMCI.
