java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access method (for a protected method)

FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_60-b27)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.60-b23, mixed mode)


FULL OS VERSION :
Mac OS X 10.9.5
Windows 7

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
A lambda nested in an anonymous class cannot call a protected method inherited by the class surrounding the anonymous class.

The compiler accepts this code but running it produces a java.lang.IllegalAccessError.

THE PROBLEM WAS REPRODUCIBLE WITH -Xint FLAG: Yes

THE PROBLEM WAS REPRODUCIBLE WITH -server FLAG: Yes

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Compile the test classes and run class bbb.Test

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
Expected:

The method aaa.AbstractClass#myDo() is called and prints "It works" to System.out

Actual:

A BootstrapMethodError is thrown caused by an IllegalAccessError
ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
1. Replace the anonymous class with a lambda expression
2. Replace the lamba expression with an anonymous class

BUT: Both workarounds do not address the initial problem, that the unmodified code is accepted by the compiler but rejected at runtime!
