I have never seen this problem. As for including src.zip in the "lib"
directory, that matches what the JDK has done for years. It may have
something to do with how you are building your JDK? In any case, as
mentioned in a previous email, I do not recommend using a boot JDK with
JavaFX modules to build FX. This is no longer the expected way to build
FX and will quite likely stop working at some point.

The zip file "src.zip" located in rt/build/sdk/lib/ after building

that resulting build has issues.
Because a zip file isn't a supported module format, Netbeans spits out
an error saying as such when attempting to compile a JavaFX
application(unsure if the project being modular matters here or not,
but it is.). It also seems to cause any attempt to build a new build
of OpenJDK to segmentation fault using that same bugged JDK as the
boot jdk.
Is there somekind of special exception for unsupported module formats
for the standalone SDK or is it just manually removed after it's done
being compiled?
Not sure if it's worth creating a bug report for this since this seems
to be some minor mishap. Including a zipped file of the source code in
a lib file doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me... I would think it
should be in the parent directory(rt/buid/sdk), next to the legal and
lib folders.
