@quantum6 From the bug description it sounds like this is an issue in later JDKs as well, please fix it in the latest development tree first where it reproduces (possibly JDK 21 at https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/), Once a fix is in later JDKs, the fix can get backported. So in this case it would be something like:

1. Fix in JDK `XX` where `XX` is the latest JDK where this reproduces
2. Backport to older JDK `YY` where `YY` is `< 8` (LTS versions and latest STS seems sufficient).
3. Come back with a backport to 8 once 1 and 2 are done.

Thanks!
