Arch Linux

Similar to  FS#68154  but for Tomcat 9.

Description:
Tomcat9 no longer works with Java 8 starting from version 9.0.38-1 even though Java 8 is officially supported. Downgrading to 9.0.37-1 fixes the problem. The error logged in catalina.out is exactly the same as in this Debian bug report:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=895866

From what I understand this could be fixed by ensuring that Tomcat is built using Java 8, building the package with Java 9+ causes this problem.


Additional info:
* package version: 9.0.38-1, 9.0.39-1
* Java version: openjdk 8.u265-1


Steps to reproduce:
- Run Tomcat9 using Java 8
- Try to connect using HTTP
- Connection is terminated and Tomcat logs this stack trace:
