I don't think that the old behavior can be triggered using --release $OLD as fix for https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8292275 was applicable to all targets / sources. But I think I can create a .jcod file with a compact constructor of a record class for which the parameters are not mandated and check that the generic information is correctly retrieved.
