Since execution environments and system packages are now correctly handled, and {{bug|387701}} got fixed in Tycho 1.2; Tycho remove the extra (and error prone) <tt>a.jre.javase</tt> units that do not match current execution environment. Older products that have a hard requirement on those IUs instead of using an <tt>osgi.ee</tt> capability requirement will now face some issues at being resolved. The corresponding <tt>a.jre.javase</tt> units will need to be added to the target-platform for the product to resolve.

Resolve system.packages against toolchain when not defined in profiles (Java 9+)

bug 563930 Since Java 9 and module JVM, JREs can now have different sets of system packages from the same version. As a result, the list of system packages cannot be built statically. So Tycho will now query the defined toolchains when to get the actual system packages when requested (mainly for the tycho-compiler-plugin when requireJREPackageImports=true). If no matching toolchain is found, a warnign is emitted and the current Java runtime is used.
