* Boot JDK:       /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_09.jdk/Contents/Home

Yes, with my patch e.g.:

Compiling 9451 files for BUILD_JDK
/Users/sandoz/Projects/jdk8/lambda/jdk/src/share/classes/java/util/stream/op/FindAnyOp.java:71: warning: auxiliary class AbstractShortCircuitTask in /Users/sandoz/Projects/jdk8/lambda/jdk/src/share/classes/java/util/stream/op/AbstractTask.java should not be accessed from outside its own source file
    private static class FindAnyTask<S, T> extends AbstractShortCircuitTask<S, T, Optional<T>, FindAnyTask<S, T>> {

Without my patch i see no such warnings (the above source file compiles fine). 

The error seems to be related to compiling the Mac specific Java source, perhaps using the boot JDK?
