Description
The following classes and methods have been terminally deprecated and should be removed from a JDK feature release:

@Deprecated(since="9", forRemoval=true) class java.lang.Compiler

@Deprecated(since="9", forRemoval=true) void java.lang.Runtime.traceInstructions(boolean)
@Deprecated(since="9", forRemoval=true) void java.lang.Runtime.traceMethodCalls(boolean)

@Deprecated(since="1.2", forRemoval=true) void java.lang.System.runFinalizersOnExit(boolean)

@Deprecated(since="1.2", forRemoval=true) void java.lang.Thread.stop(java.lang.Throwable)
@Deprecated(since="1.5", forRemoval=true) void java.lang.Thread.destroy()
@Deprecated(since="1.2", forRemoval=true) int java.lang.Thread.countStackFrames()
Comments
Removal of java.lang.Compiler is covered by JDK-8205129. Removal of Runtime.trace* methods is covered by JDK-8205131. Removal of Thread.countStackFrames() is covered by JDK-8205132. Since all the APIs mentioned in this task have either been removed or are covered by other issues, I'm closing this out.
