I created an issue #2656 for the "illegal access" problem in general, unaware of this one. I'm not totally convinced that that is what was making the prompt disappear. Our attempt to use Console.encoding is already guarded with a try-catch to leave encoding null. If I force that, it falls back on file.encoding (yeah, I know) and if I force it still to be null, I end up with cp1252 (Latin-1). No failure with encoding here makes the prompt disappear. And yet I've seen the like myself (with Java 9 I think). I can't reproduce it on demand now I want to.
