> Note that a bug within javac (reported in https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8327824) causes the annotations to become `@Anno(1) String @Anno(3) [] @Anno(2) []` in the output files; this bug also affects output class files so I assume this is a bug within javac's tree building. (Intersting, the buggy javadoc output was copied wholesale in the original `TestTypeAnnotations` output for `array2Deep` cases, but no one paid attention to it)
