That patch is delayed since it turns out there are some tests that rely on specific behavior from the JVM - a few JPMS violations in legacy dev mode, and apparently Annotation.toString() changed slightly breaking a few other tests. I think it is just about ready, but each round of testing takes a few hours, so it is hard to get it done in one sitting.
But it will produce working output, including docs, if you want to use it to build a GWT SDK locally.
