Comments
I could confirm on 1.8.0_40-ea that the crash is identical to jdk 9 dev stream. I'll close this one as a duplicate and carry over the test case from here to JDK-8068399
20-01-2015

On JDK9 dev tot, I don't see the NPE, but the compiler crashes with an assertion failure very similar to https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8068399
13-01-2015

Checked this for JDK 8u25 and JDK9 and could reproduce the issue. However, the error differ between two versions. For JDK 8u25, it's a NullPointer Exception and for JDK 9 it's an AssertionError. This looks like a duplicate of JDK-8044546.
