> When you want to add a module-info.java file to your project AND want your 
> code to be compatible with older java version, then you need to call 
> {{javac}} twice.
> To prevent all kinds of magic for selecting the right files to compile with 
> the right version of Java it is probably better to just have a separate 
> folder for it. I'd prefer to call it 'jigsaw' instead of java9, so it'll 
> still makes sense once we're at java16
