Actually, that does sound like what I was thinking.  However, Harmony being 
dead since 2011 means that there hasn't been much demand for it.  I wonder if 
Oracle's new policies for Java 11 will foster a resurgence of interest in 
keeping older Java versions alive, or perhaps one version in particular...

"Java 8 Forever!"  I dunno, it kinda has the same ring to it as "Windows XP 
Forever!"
