When -source 8 and -target 8 were added to javac (~~JDK-7025786~~), they were just aliases for -source/target 7 and in particular -target 8 generated the same version 51.0 class files as -target 7.

As soon as version 52.0 class files are supported in HotSpot (~~JDK-7054340~~), javac should change the meaning of -target 8 to generate version 52.0 class files.
