javac 8/9 inconsistency

[Maurizio Cimadamore]

Hi Anna,
this is an issue we know about; this is the master bug we use to keep 
track of such issues:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8039214

We did a bit of back and forth on this and as a result there is a 
difference between JDK 8 and JDK 9. The end result will be that this 
code will compile on both, but the fix used in 8 will be (very) 
different form the one we'll do in 9.
