This can technically be a breaking change, as it was supported for the field to
have a declared type that is assignable from `ObjectStreamField[]`, as long as
it held an `ObjectStreamField[]` instance at runtime, even if it wasn’t
officially supported.
class Example implements Serializable {
// This used to work before this patch in OpenJDK
private static final Object serialPersistentFields = new
ObjectStreamField[] {
// ...
};
// ...
}
