Description
After the fix for JDK-8161704, we can no longer build JavaFX with OpenJDK due to leftover dependency on jdk.jfr.

The build logic that depends on jfr is currently disabled in build.gradle, but the module-info.java of javafx.base has a "requires jdk.jfr" statement. This should be removed. As a note, JDK-8088418 is a follow-on RFE to switch to the new API, and when/if that is done it will need to be done such that the dependency is optional.
Comments
A fundamental part of being able to compile javafx modules with the latest JDK is to include module-info.java when compiling.

Hmm, I wonder wouldn't excluding module-info.java from sourceSet fix that? And also that warning during testing?
09-11-2016
We now actually compile module-info.java when we build FX, so the absence of jdk.jfr causes a compilation error.

There was some logic in the build.gradle along the lines 3816 which was supposed to deal with this. I wonder why it doesn't work anymore?
