+ * r1933892
+   Make the JavaHL JAR an automatic module.
+   Justification:
+     Provides fine-grained control of access to restricted methods. The
+     alternative requires granting access to all "unnamed" modules.
+   Notes:
+     Although this change does not affect backwards compatibility of JavaHL,
+     it is my opinion that it really should go into a minor release. So we
+     should either backport to 1.15.0 or wait for 1.16.0.
+
+     Tested with JDK 1.8, JDK 11 and JDK 25 on ARM64 macOS.
+
+     Depends on r1933877 and r1933796.
