JEP 468 - binary compatibility clarifications

[Attila Kelemen]

Thanks for both the answers. So, to summarize: JEP 468 leaves this behavior
undefined (given the JLS saying "may break"), but for now it will work as
if I did things manually. Though the spec leaves open the possibility of an
indy using implementation in the future.
