breaks the -jar option for OpenJDK builds when not using the OpenJDK java binary
(--disable-jre-layout).  The problem is the java.class.path is not set in vm_create()
anymore but in vm_run().

This happens because java.lang.System.initializeSystemClass() is called from
nativevm_init() which is called from vm_create().

The OpenJDK java binary passes the java.class.path via -D to vm_create().

Not sure yet how to fix it.

I wasn't even aware that this was an option.
