This is an obvious breaking change
SJH will currently "manually" definePackage every package it comes across. The revised Javadoc for definePackage says this is discouraged, and the JRE itself does not do this.
This leads to a discrepancy between SJH and platform modular loaders which prevents us from using them, currently. (As a consequence we cannot put FML or ML directly onto the JRE module path).
A version of SJH with this change will no longer return the implementation version and specification version of packages, and calls to
Package#isCompatibleWith
will not work.
