Presumably this is a javac lint warning about how types referenced from
an exported API (e.g., the return type of an exported public method)
should themselves be exported.

Thanks to you both for the advice.
Following on your suggestions, Caffeine changed to "requires static".
However, javac now produces a warning about the lack of transitivity:
warning: [exports] class Nullable in module
org.checkerframework.checker.qual is not indirectly exported using
requires tr
Even without `transitive`, requiring modules with `static` means that
anyone who habitually builds their entire stack from source will still
need the errorprone and checker-qual modules at compile time.
There are no "run-time only" dependencies in module declarations, unless
services come into

Hello,
The cache library Caffeine recently added a full module descriptor. It
has no runtime dependencies, but it depends on metadata annotations
from checker-qual and errorprone, for example @NotNull and
@CanIgnoreReturnValue. The module looks like this:
module com.github.benmanes.caffeine {
