        After JDK-8027682, javac rejects compilation units like the following:

        $ cat T.java
        package p;;

        $ javac -fullversion T.java
        javac full version "21-ea+16-1326"
        T.java:2: error: reached end of file while parsing
        1 error

        Is this a bug? I expected it to reject semi-colons preceding imports, but if there are no imports, isn't the the semi-colon a valid empty type declaration?
