      During work on JDK-8055079 for creation of golden files for negative tests, it was suggested to improve error message for test cases with cyclic inheritance. Test: langtools/test/tools/javac/Object2.java
      Golden file for this test will require updates once this issue is fixed.

      Current error diagnostic:
      Object2.java:11:25: compiler.err.cyclic.inheritance: java.lang.Cloneable
      1 error
