      Description

        TransTypes report user-facing errors in two conditions:

        1) if there's a clash between bridge methods and user defined methods
        2) if there's an actual/formal argument arity mismatch due to compiling sig poly methods with -target 6

        Now, (1) is no longer an issue since we started carrying out override checks in Attr (see JDK-7007615); for (2) I believe a better fix for JDK-8013179 would be to eliminate much of the special casing associated to sig poly methods.
