A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Hi!
I want to migrate a java application from java 1.7 to 1.8.
Compiling it with java 1.8 and -source 1.7 and -target 1.7 works.
But with -source 1.8 and -target 1.8 let the compiler crashs.

Here is the stacktrace:

Using javac 1.8.0_11 to compile java sources
java: An exception has occurred in the compiler (1.8.0_11). Please file a bug at the Java Developer Connection (http://java.sun.com/webapps/bugreport) after checking the Bug Parade for duplicates. Include your program and the following diagnostic in your report. Thank you.
