Description

After updating the JDK, we end up with some native loading issues that cause erroneous syntax highlighting. Sketches run fine, but the pre-processor needs to be looked at.

Research direction

The issue names no file or test; start with the pre-processor and read the linked discussion in issue #1269, focusing on the JDK-related native loading problem. Reproduce the erroneous syntax highlighting, confirm that sketches still run, and consider the work done when highlighting is correct after the JDK update.
