Research direction

Start by searching the repository for the exact JDK-8318913 workaround message and tracing the code that patches module-info.class. Compare the workaround's version check with JDK-8318913 and verify behavior on JDK 22 or newer, including JDK 25. Done means the obsolete workaround and its output no longer appear on supported JDK versions.
