This isn't a bug.  javac necessarily runs with a finite stack size, but there
is no limit in the JLS on the nesting complexity of a Java program, so javac
will always run out of stack space with some inputs.  The need to set the stack
size explicitly when building particularly complex source files is well-known,
and this is even done while building OpenJDK itself.
