I gave a look at the highlights and I'm curious about the "Basic
support for Java 9 (though still some issues)" point. What Java 9
features are you supporting, what are the issues?


I'm not supporting Java 9 features per se, but I added a --with-java-source=9
configure option, and Kawa generates the new classfile version number.

I had to make one or two fixes to disambiguate new overloaded methods,
plus I had to deal with the new Java versioning scheme,

I don't remember what the remaining issues were - I believe it was some
testsuite failures, and there was something I had to configure out.
