Do you know anything about the ClassLoader::getPackages issue? Is this a

hmm... if I look at
https://github.com/gradle/gradle/blob/master/subprojects/base-services/src/main/java/org/gradle/internal/classloader/MultiParentClassLoader.java
and I imagine one parent being a MultiParentClassLoader...
getDefinedPackages is final, so you cannot do what they did for
getPackages, unless you do it from outside. And for that you need to
know about multiple parents... I don´t know if it is working well enough
for Gradle, but no, getDefinedPackages is no suitable replacement for
getPackages at all if you have to consider multiparent class loaders.
Since the methods reflected upon in ClassLoader here are all protected,
couldn't this specific code be made reflection-free by wrapping all
parent classloaders in a delegating classloader that overrides
getPackage/getPackages as public?
