Description
Interface package-info is a special case. It should be marked as both abstract and synthetic according to the VM specification. The JVM should allow modifier 0x1600 in this special case.

Comments
EVALUATION The spec was modified to allow ACC_SYNTHETIC for interfaces. The vm should follow that. *** (#1 of 1): [ UNSAVED ] ###@###.###
