ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The new option '--add-opens' is not handled in com.sun.deploy.config.Config, leading to run-time failure when reflective applications (using XStream, Hibernate, ...) are run

REGRESSION. Last worked in version 9

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. Compile the given source file and put in a JAR file
2. Sign JAR file
3. Deploy as a webstart app with the given (unsigned) JNLP file
4. Run application

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
WebStart app should display "OK"
ACTUAL -
App crashes with an exception
