Description
8035618 fix assumed that JDK 8 was being used as the official bootstrap for JDK 9 building. That change hasn't happened yet however.

To workaround this for the short term, I'm proposing we use reflection.
Comments
JPRT env is using JDK8 for bootstrap which is currently incorrect IMO since RE is using JDK 7 for bootstrap.
