I expect this is the SDK version you are using more than the OS version.
10.9 is the supported SDK.

Any changes to this particular code should be discussed on 
2d-dev@openjdk.java.net
since they would not be build changes

But that might not be sufficient .. you could encounter other issues that
limit the ability to build using whatever SDK you have.
