As part of the fix for 4837030, javadoc's ClassDocImpl.java file received
this workaround for a javac bug:

  D 1.70 03/11/16 23:31:22 gafter 103 102 00002/00000/01222
  (prepare for) 4837030: in 1.5, the default -target should be 1.5
  (fixes an incidental bug in javadoc that was causing a javah failure)
  ...
void addAllClasses(ListBuffer<ClassDocImpl> l, boolean filtered) {
try {
if (isSynthetic()) return;
  + // sometimes synthetic classes are not marked synthetic
  + if (!JavadocTool.isValidClassName(tsym.name.toString())) return;

Apparently a synthetic method isn't being flagged as synthetic, possibly
because it's not being completed.

"apt" will probably need a similar workaround. Once the underlying
bug is fixed, the workaround can be removed from the two tools.
Bug End:
