No, the bug is still there. The inlining policy changed a bit, so that the
relevant method is no longer inlined with the command line specified in the
bug report.

Use the following command line flags:

  -Xcomp -XX:CompileOnly=NullCheckTest.test,NullCheckTest$A.inlined
-XX:+PrintCompilation -XX:+PrintInlining


You should get this (or a similar) output:

CompileOnly: compileonly *NullCheckTest*.test
VM option 'CompileOnly=NullCheckTest.test,NullCheckTest$A.inlined'
VM option '+PrintCompilation'
VM option '+PrintInlining'
CompileOnly: compileonly *NullCheckTest$A*.inlined
  1   b   at.ssw.test.NullCheckTest::test (11 bytes)
           @ 2   at.ssw.test.NullCheckTest$A::inlined (6 bytes)
FAILURE: ClassCastException
