FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0-b105, mixed mode, sharing)

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
There is still a loophole related to wildcard substitution.
In the attached example, Eppb's second parameter extends a box of a box of its first param. Applied to Ebbp<?,?> this means the second parameter has Box<Box<?>> as upperbound, which is wrong.

According to bug 5044625 this should already have been fixed by applying capture conversion on the left-hand side of supertype, but apparently the change there wasn't enough.


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
