David, thanks for taking care of the bug!

src/hotspot/share/c1/c1_Canonicalizer.cpp
...
  void Canonicalizer::do_CheckCast      (CheckCast*       x) {
-  if (x->klass()->is_loaded()) {
+  if (x->klass()->is_loaded() && !x->is_invokespecial_receiver_check())

It seems like it's not something specific to invokespecial, but a 
generic problem in how interface casts are handled in C1: it's not 
correct to eliminate the cast if obj->declared_type() is an interface. I 
assume that's what happens in your case. FTR I'm fine with handling it 
separately.

test/jdk/java/lang/invoke/I4Special.jcod:

I'm curious why did you choose jcod here and not jasm? It seems jasm 
should be a better fit to replace invokevirtual with invokespecial 
(unless I'm missing something important in the test case).

Otherwise, looks good.


Best regards,
Vladimir Ivanov
