[JDK-8338526](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8338526) cannot be backed out verbatim, since it has some follow-up fixes. But I also don't think this is necessary at this point. The changes supporting this feature were harmless and few. And we still may want this feature, especially when it comes to auto-generated classes.
