As I've mentioned 
elsewhere, https://plus.google.com/+JamesNelsonX/posts/gBfpBDnwV9V , java 9 
support is entirely possible.

When I last tried it out, it required a fair number of hacks, but it worked 
fine.
I expect the final version of java 9 modules to require slightly fewer 
hacks,
and for it to take a fair amount of time to properly refactor gwt jars 
enough to be usable in java 9 systems.

If you are in a rush to get java 9, you are going to have to roll up your 
sleeves, hold your nose, and dive into the early-access bug-zone.
I can get you jars that (can be made to) work, but are very likely to 
change when integrated properly into Gwt
(I did some unspeakable things to make it work the weekend I did it as my 
project).

If you are comfortable waiting until there is more official support, I 
can't really tell you what Google is planning...
I, however, will be releasing my fork w/ java 9 support when I am sure the 
underlying module system is completely done changing;
a few colleagues and I are considering opening a gwt-shop with support for 
the 2.X line, and would handle this kind of stuff directly,
however, it's still being done in my "spare" time, which is actually 
supposed to be for building a new ui templating language for gwt,
coming up with an javax.model replacement for gwt generators, and building 
a social network to fix democracy...  hehe.
