I don't feel it is as easy as fixing a test. First of all, our closure
generated classes are *not* anonymous. ClosureWriter doesn't generate
anonymous classes, and we can verify it easily:
def cl = { -> '' }
assert cl.class.anonymousClass == false
Second, it is a problem for backwards compatibility. Any code relying today
on Class<Closure>#getSimpleName will start failing on JDK 9. Granted it
might not be a lot of code, but there's no way to prevent it from happening.
