b117: Self-reference in initializer does no longer work

[Millies, Sebastian]

I just upgraded from b114 to b114. Self-references in initializers do no longer work, e. g.
Zhong Yu's variation on the fix point operator:

static <A,B> Function<A,B> fix2(Function<Function<A,B>, Function<A,B>> f)
    {
        return new Object()
       {
            Function<A,B> r = a -> f.apply(r).apply(a);
        }.r;
    }

Why has this feature been dropped? Or is it a bug in b117?
