The initial proposal was extending the use of invokespecial to allow it
to be used for private nestmate method invocations. To support that
changes had to be made to the verifier. After JVMLS it was decided that
we would use invokevirtual and invokeinterface (as appropriate) as the
specification changes needed are much simpler. The switch to that
approach was done under JDK-8187221 and JDK-8186763. Now we can remove
the invokespecial changes that were initially put in place.
Thanks,
David
