JDK-8188144 regression in method reference type-checking

[Maurizio Cimadamore]

Hi John,
unfortunately the only planned update to JDK 9 is shipping very soon, 
and it's too late now to integrate fix on it. So, the next planned 
release with the fix is gonna be JDK 10 (unless a new maintainer for JDK 
9 is going to step forward) - see:

Also, a related (and recent) thread (thanks to Sean Coffey to point that 
out):

Thanks
Maurizio

It’s logged as a P3 that is targeting 10 but was resolved in build b26; wasn’t that one of the old Java9 early access builds? Is this bug fix planned for the next patch release of 9, or is it only targeted for 10?
