Summary of problem

I have been working on getting an ISV application (Open-source version) running on ppc64le. The source links are located here: https://hub.alfresco.com/t5/alfresco-content-services-blog/building-alfresco-docker-images-from-source-code/ba-p/311375
When trying to build the component called "base-repo" with mvn install, gives an error with the IBM Semeru v11.

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.8.0:compile (default-compile) on project alfresco-repository: Compilation failure
[ERROR] /root/alfresco-community-repo/repository/src/main/java/org/alfresco/repo/jscript/AlfrescoScriptThreadMxBeanWrapper.java:[51,73] cannot find symbol
[ERROR]   symbol:   method getThreadAllocatedBytes(long)

It looks like Semeru/OpenJ9 didn’t implement this symbol currently. I did find the same reference in one of the issues, still open,
#14054 (comment)

Would like to know, if this symbol can be included as part of Semeru/OpenJ9. Also, if it can be implemented, when can we expect a new build or a supported maintenance release, so that I can continue with my test.

Do let me know if you need more details, I will be able to provide the same.
