Loading classes from the unnamed boot module (for instance an agent) causes:
*** java.lang.instrument ASSERTION FAILED ***: "!errorOutstanding"
with message transform method call failed at JPLISAgent.c line: 884
Due to trying to dereference the null-loader in
sun.instrument.InstrumentationImpl:439
module = loader.getUnnamedModule();
Thanks for the bug report, this is regression in JDK 9. I suspect we
don't have tests that exercise this with classes added to the boot
loader with -Xbootclasspath/a. I've created JDK-8156147 [1] to track it.
