The following code snippet throws OutOfMemoryException instead of IllegalArgumentException:

$ cat AsCollectorTest.java import java.dyn.*;

public class AsCollectorTest {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Throwable {
        try {
            asCollectorIAE();
            System.out.println("FAILED");
        } catch(IllegalArgumentException iae) {
            System.out.println("OKAY");
        }
    }

    private static void asCollectorIAE() throws Throwable {
        MethodHandle mh = MethodHandles.lookup().findVirtual(
                AsCollectorTest.class, "m", MethodType.methodType(void.class));
        mh.asCollector(Object[].class, Integer.MAX_VALUE/2); // MAX_VALUE, MAX_VALUE-1, ...
    }

    private void m() {}
}
