    Backports

      Description

        This is a bug record to back out JDK-8065132 and JDK-8029012 from JDK 8u40.

        Two changes were backported to 8u40, which change the way javac generates classfiles. However, because of problems with the GenericSignatures attribute format, this causes javac to fail to load classfiles generated with a previous version. This needs to be backed out in 8u40.
