Here is more information about where the crash occurs;
public class BugJdk9 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String root="/Users/lyon/current/java/j3d/ij3d/foo/natives/macosx-universal/";
        String libs[]={
                "libgluegen-rt.jnilib",
                "libjoal.jnilib",

                "libjogl_mobile.jnilib",
                "libnewt.jnilib",
                "libopenal.dylib",
                "libjocl.jnilib",
                "libnativewindow_macosx.jnilib",
                "libnativewindow_awt.jnilib"};

        System.out.println("test begins");
        for (int i=0; i < libs.length;i++) {
            System.out.println("trying:"+libs[i]);
            System.load(root + libs[i]);
            System.out.println("loaded:"+libs[i]);
