Sorry. I only noticed now that you added this to UPGRADEABLE_MODULE.   Please 
add it only to PLATFORM_MODULES list instead.

Making it an upgradeable module is a separate issue.  I suggest you reopen 
JDK-8171448.  Specifically, since upgradeable modules are not tied with 
java.base, our goal for JDK 9 is to eliminate qualified exports from JDK 
modules to upgradeable modules, e.g. JDK-8170116, JDK-8166745, JDK-8161549.

Hope Sean will review this one.  Please send an updated webrev.

No it does not.

When a module M is recorded in the ModuleHashes attribute of java.base, the 
runtime will check if module M resolved in the graph matches the one tied with 
java.base when created at build time; if not, it will fail.  If an upgradeable

JDK-8145337 is about the security permission.  It’s better to separate this 
review from JDK-8171448.
