The Compiler team needs to review this as well, so added 
hotspot-compiler-dev mailing list.

Thanks,

The bytes passed to com.sun.jdi.VirtualMachine.redefineClasses()  don't correspond to the reference type (the names do not match) and the test expects NoClassDefFoundError to be thrown.

As a result, it resets the progress wait attempt counter and goes into an endless loop waiting for JVMCI to complete the compilation.
