I wouldn't say it "supports default methods" rather it ignores them so 
they don't trigger exceptions. I'm still puzzling over why default 
methods have a zero _codeIndex as that seems to be the real cause of the 
trouble. ??

As a quick workaround it may be okay but it appears that SA is seriously 
lagging in its language support. :(

Cheers,
David
