Hi from te Groovy team again,

this is with gradle 3.0 and jdk9 jigsaw b136:

```gradle
[12:00:28][Gradle failure report] Caused by: java.lang.reflect.InaccessibleObjectException: Unable to make protected java.lang.Package[] java.lang.ClassLoader.getPackages() accessible: module java.base does not "exports private java.lang" to unnamed module @6ca18a14

```

I did not have this problem in b134, but the error message fits in the picture for me, so I assume they fixed a bug here… unless gradle is doing something with modules to get extended permissions already
