RFR(S): 8131129: Attempt to define a duplicate BMH$Species class

[Michael Haupt]

Hi Peter,

but this is more like a separate RFE for improving the testing infrastructure, right? Or am I missing something? Unless this is important for the fix to 8131129, I'd like to keep it separate.

Best,

Michael

> The 1st attempt that also tries to initialize the class throws InternalError directly from <clinit>, but the 2nd attempt is a kind of LinkageError, which is a different type. So in order for the test(s) to pass, we have to consider this secondary exception too as a non-critical exception:
