This is really about gcc rather than a version of Ubuntu.
I see little value in making the javafx.graphics native code compile
with such an old version of gcc that it doesn't support C++11. (Worth
noting that WebKit requires an even newer version, since it uses C++20
features).
So, while yes, I'd like to see this continue to be buildable on Ubuntu
16.04 -- and so far I have no problems compiling on that OS -- it seems
fine to require a newer compiler in order for you to do so.

Hi,
I get some compilation errors when building JavaFX on Ubuntu 16.04,
which seems related to the newly introduced Platform preferences API.
Should we bother to make it work?
