SourcePositions.getStartPos() incorrectly returns -1 for enum constants. TreeInfo.java line 288 has:

case(JCTree.VARDEF): {
JCVariableDecl node = (JCVariableDecl)tree;
if (node.mods.pos != Position.NOPOS) {
return node.mods.pos;
} else {
return getStartPos(node.vartype);
}

and you can see why it doesn't work for enum constants.
I'm lazy, so let me try to explain the problem one more time. If you still think you need a test case, I'll consider writing one.

The problem happens when I'm looking at the tree of enum constant declaration, like "ABC" of:

  enum E { ABC, DEF; }

Javac creates JCTree.JCVariableDecl node for 'ABC' (and 'DEF') Unlike other 'ordinary' field declarations or local variable declarations, this JCVariableDecl doesn't have the JCVariableDecl#vartype set. So when I try to access the start position of this JCVariableDecl, the following code runs:

case(JCTree.VARDEF): {
JCVariableDecl node = (JCVariableDecl)tree;
if (node.mods.pos != Position.NOPOS) {
return node.mods.pos;
} else {
return getStartPos(node.vartype);
}

and I get NOPOS. The correct code should be:

case(JCTree.VARDEF): {
JCVariableDecl node = (JCVariableDecl)tree;
if (node.mods.pos != Position.NOPOS) {
return node.mods.pos;
}
            if(node.vartype!=null) {
return getStartPos(node.vartype);
}
            return node.sym.pos;
