A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
jShell in versions 18 and 20 crashes when these two statements are entered:

var a = new Object()
var a = a

It works correctly with

Object a = new Object()
Object a = a

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1.) start jshell
2.) enter "var a = new Object()"
3.) enter "var a = a"

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
variable a is assigned to itself, no crash of jshell
ACTUAL -
crash, see stacktrace

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
use "Object a = a" instead

FREQUENCY : always
