There are plans to have libgraal be built for JDK master using a version of Native Image running on a JDK one version behind JDK master. This Native Image execution needs to be able to load the JVMCI classes. As such, the JVMCI classes must have a class file major version of N-1 where N is the major class file version of JDK master.
