RFR: 8356941: AbstractMethodError in HotSpot Due to Incorrect Handling of Private Method

Private methods should never be considered as the implementation of a default method.

The first commit adds some additional logging I used to track down what was happening. I like it, but if reviewers think it too much I can drop it.

The second commit is the actual fix to exclude private methods, and adds the missing test case to the existing defmeth tests.

Testing:
 - tiers 1-4

Thanks
