Much water has flown under the bridge - we have ripped out all support for ref-default classes and so the meanings of unadorned/naked names have changed. (in the original scenario the name CheckRefLambda is a primitive reference but in what you have put together, CheckRefLambda is an instance of a primitive class) This test case does not fail anymore without any changes (javac and/or runtime). Since we already have a javac test covering the PR, we should be good I would say.
