Jesper, I think this PR may be abandoned and the related JBS ticket closed as Not an Issue. 
Via https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8279431 all support for ref-default classes has
been ripped out - these are subsumed by value classes - the so called B2 classes - which are
'L' types (reference types) really. Value classes are reference types that are final, whose instances are
immutable after construction, lack identity and are marked as ACC_VALUE in class files.

The whole inlining/flattening thing is an "optimization" - so these classes are reference classes for
all practical purposes. Against that backdrop I think this PR has lost its relavance,
