JDK-8040327 - Eliminate AnnotatedType
Description
Followup to JDK-8033718: the updated code fails to call unannotatedType() before performing a cast in the wildLowerBound and cvarLowerBound methods.  There's not a straightforward way to prompt this scenario -- an annotated wildcard or capture variable -- but, to be safe and consistent, we should call unannotatedType().
Comments
No longer an issue in 9, due to JDK-8040327.

Reopening for now until JDK-8040327 is completed and backported; then I'll close as "Not an Issue". Don't want to allow the bug to accidentally linger by slipping through the cracks.

Integration of JDK-8040327 is immanent (integration jobs running at the time of posting), which will make this a non-issue.
09-05-2014
Note that the JDK-8040327 removes not only the AnnotatedType but also the unannotatedType() method.
