I verified that the FMGenerator has the fix in my parent Eclipse and that my parent can find JAXBException. Interestingly, it points to both the Java 8 version in the JRE and
the loaded version (since I switched to Java 11 using alternatives).
I also tried deleting my bundle_pool from the parent Eclipse and restarting. Still the same error in the child Eclipse (note that I cleared the workspace for the child Eclipse each time).
