Turns out this issue goes quite a ways in the past and is not a
recent regression. There were some red herrings in the test case
that made it look at first sight to be a regression introduced last
week. Happily that turned out NOT to be the case.
The input Java program has to badly malformed (methods outside of
all classes with annotated parameters) to trigger this problem.
Since the compiler should gracefully recover when handled even
seriously ill-formed input, we will need to fix this, but
NOT for 3.8 M4.
Sorry for the noise,
Thanks!
Srikanth.
