A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Using "javac" to compile Main.java (or running the source file with "java") causes AssertionError

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
javac Main.java

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The source file should be compiled to a class file
ACTUAL -
An exception has occurred in the compiler (24-ea). Please file a bug against the Java compiler via the Java bug reporting page (https://bugreport.java.com) after checking the Bug Database (https://bugs.java.com) for duplicates.
