Javac generates invalid signatures for local types

FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
Tested on OpenJDK 7 and seen the same bug in OpenJDK 8 source code

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Irrelevant: this is generic code

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The following code compiles but fails to run:

class Foo<Outer> {
    void m(){
        class Local1{}
        class Local2 extends Local1{}
        Local2.class.getTypeParameters();
    }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new Foo().m();
        System.err.println("Test passed");
    }
}

This is because the signature attribute for Local2's super class is incorrectly generated by javac as "Lfoo/Foo.1Local1;" while it should be "Lfoo/Foo$1Local1;" (a dollar instead of a dot). Eclipse's compiler correctly generates the signature. Javac for OpenJDK 7 will generate an invalid signature resulting in the following exception at runtime:

at java.lang.Class.getTypeParameters(Class.java:640)
at foo.Foo.m(foo.java:7)
at foo.Foo.main(foo.java:10)

The bug is due to com.sun.tools.javac.jvm.ClassWriter.assembleClassSig():

...
        if (outer.allparams().nonEmpty()) {
            boolean rawOuter =
                c.owner.kind == MTH || // either a local class
                c.name == names.empty; // or anonymous
            assembleClassSig(rawOuter
                             ? types.erasure(outer)
                             : outer);
            sigbuf.appendByte('.'); // BUG HERE
            Assert.check(c.flatname.startsWith(c.owner.enclClass().flatname));
            sigbuf.appendName(rawOuter
                              ? c.flatname.subName(c.owner.enclClass().flatname.getByteLength()+1,c.flatname.getByteLength())
                              : c.name);
        } else {
...

If we replace the line with "BUG HERE" with:

            sigbuf.appendByte(rawOuter ? '$' : '.');

Then it works.

The same bug seems to be present in OpenJDK 8 but the code has moved to Types.java: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/langtools/file/1ff9d5118aae/src/share/classes/com/sun/tools/javac/code/Types.java#l4652


STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Compile the sample Java code, run foo.Foo

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Expected to see "Test passed"
ACTUAL -

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
class Foo<Outer> {
    void m(){
        class Local1{}
        class Local2 extends Local1{}
        Local2.class.getTypeParameters();
    }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new Foo().m();
        System.err.println("Test passed");
    }
}

---------- END SOURCE ----------

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
For some reason, if the Foo outer class does not take type parameters, the bug will not trigger at runtime.
