Description
Very old javac target generate "Miranda methods" on classes implementing interfaces. Miranda methods were (by the specification) unnecessary abstract methods generated by javac to workaround bugs in contemporary VMs.

In case such a class compiled to have Miranda methods should implement an interface with default methods, the combination of these two should be known.
