I agree with @mlchung that the call site in `ClassLoader` is not particularly interesting and doesn't motivate a non-cloning, trusted method. There are a few other places in java.base where it's used and a trusted method could help, but not sure any of those are performance critical. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/7714
