We need to be able to build the Scala libs and execute unit tests successfully on the IBM J9 JVM.

Also, J9 has to be running on the PowerPC architecture.

I scoped out the work and it'll amount to minor fixes in our test suite (no compiler/library changes planned):

  • skipping some tests that fail due to a bug in J9's implementation of Class::getSimpleName, which returns "" when the class name contains "$anon"
  • making some tests less fragile (J9 has a method on array that's not present in Oracle's JDK and thus one of our reflection tests fails)
  • making our JNI test powerpc-aware

Also, in my testing, it's turned out that partest tends to deadlock on J9 powerpc.
