I know how to implement the StackWalker code but I don’t quite know how to get 
it into the build. The main build needs to keep using Java 7 but of course the 
StackWalker stuff needs to be compiled with Java 9. Technically, I know how I 
could do that except I have no idea how it would work in Jenkins. It would also 
mean that everyone would be required to have Java 9 installed in order to do 
the build.

An alternate approach would be to have the Java 9 specific classes in a 
separate repo with its own build. It would have to be “released” but we really 
wouldn’t need or want to release those jars to Maven Central as they would only 
be needed in the Log4j build - the classes would be copied into the Log4j jar.

If any of you know we can set a Jenkins variable to point to the latest Java 9 
version that could solve the problem.
