Bisection shows it started to happen after [JDK-8253660](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8253660). I believe `toString()` there is not very resilient in the face of `null` causes.
Example output:
$ make run-test TEST=compiler/aot
STDERR:
java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "java.lang.Throwable.getCause()" because "<local1>" is null
at jdk.test.lib.artifacts.ArtifactResolverException.getRootCause(ArtifactResolverException.java:22)
at jdk.test.lib.artifacts.ArtifactResolverException.toString(ArtifactResolverException.java:17)
...
at compiler.aot.AotCompiler.resolveLinker(AotCompiler.java:270)
at compiler.aot.AotCompiler.launchCompiler(AotCompiler.java:112)
at compiler.aot.AotCompiler.main(AotCompiler.java:78)
...
...and since it is a part of this block:
} catch (ArtifactResolverException e) {
System.err.println("artifact resolution error: " + e); // <--- calling to broken toString() here
e.printStackTrace(System.err);
// let jaotc try to find linker
return null;
}
...we never actually get to `// let jaotc try to find linker` part, and that is why I suspect it causes Windows x86_64 tier1/compiler failures in GitHub workflows. See below, `Windows tier1/compiler` tests are now passing. (There are some infra failures in other places on Windows, though).
