Exceptions at Constructor References for inner classes

[bitter_fox]

Sorry, I forgot to tell you which has problem.
Right, these exceptions appear on the newest revision, I mean Revision
1418[1] of lambda/langtool.

I could check that NPE appeared from 2012 Feb binary snapshot.(I don't have
a older one than 2012 Feb now.)
InapplicableMethodException appeared from Revision 1409[2]
