    Description

      Passing an 'invokespecial' MethodHandle to LambdaMetafactory—for example, 'invokespecial Object.toString:()Ljava/lang/String'—causes an internal VerificationError, because the lambda class, a nestmate of the original class, does not have access to use invokespecial on the original class's super methods.

      java.lang.InternalError: java.lang.VerifyError: Bad type on operand stack

        Reason:
          Type 'MetafactoryArgValidationTest$C' (current frame, stack[0]) is not assignable to 'MetafactoryArgValidationTest$C$$Lambda$63+0x00000007c0102208'

      In practice, this does not arise from Java method references because javac always generates a bridge for a 'super::foo' method reference.
