>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Class Loading
>    Affects Versions: 7.1.2.Final (EAP)
>            Reporter: James Livingston

>
> JBoss Modules does not currently support exporting META-INF/services from a system dependency as it does for module dependencies. As a result, any services provided by the JRE cannot be seen from other modules.
> This results in deployments not being able to use javax.print.PrintServiceLookup and other API, since they will not find any implementations.
> The modules/sun/jdk/main/service-loader-resources/ exists purely to work around this problem. It is not the best solution since the contents are JRE-specific.
