The JVMCI code that Graal depends on was added to Java 9 and is inbuilt.
However, all Graal and Graal-downstream projects use a custom built Java 8 release. This is also the plan for the "foreseeable future" (https://github.com/oracle/truffleruby/issues/556#issuecommen...)
It looks like a bureaucratic struggle of some kind - I wonder what's the behind the scenes story at Oracle.
Additionally, "mx" : the build system that Graal uses is fairly funky - and everyone including Chris (the engineer that made this video) is trying to get the team to move on

I wish they would use Bazel or something
