Type variable information is not always maintained for anonymous classes

[David Holmes]

Hi Sergey,

Just FYI we're in the process of moving away from using anonymous 
classes for lambda's to using an extended Lookup.defineClass API - see:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8171335

this is being done under Project Valhalla, with current work in the 
nestmates branch.

We need to see how this example work in that case.

Cheers,
David
