ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
x86_64 GNU/Linux

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Generalized target type inference should allow the attached code to compile. The JDK 8 javac accepts it, but it is rejected by JDK 9.

This regression bisects to the fix for JDK-8078093 [1][2]. It may be related to JDK-8147493 [3], which is another type inference regression involving unchecked calls that was introduced by the fix for 8078093.

REGRESSION.  Last worked in version 8u66

ADDITIONAL REGRESSION INFORMATION:

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

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
I expected the code to compile.
ACTUAL -
The code does not compile.

ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
