I think https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8199149 is the relevant
RFE.

If you execute it, you get
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
at java.base/java.lang.invoke.VarForm.getMemberName(VarForm.java:99)
at
java.base/java.lang.invoke.VarHandleGuards.guard_LLL_Z(VarHandleGuards.java:77)
at ThereIsABugButWhere.update(ThereIsABugButWhere.java:22)
at ThereIsABugButWhere.main(ThereIsABugButWhere.java:26)
It takes me 20 mins to find the issue ...
I think we can improve the error message or even better report the issue at the
right location :)
