"compiler message file broken" - I guess a java compiler bug?

Question

Take the code:

public class A {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new Thread((new I() {})::test);
    }

    interface I {
        private void test() {}
    }
}

And try to compile. I receive:

A.java:5: error: invalid method reference
        new Thread(((new I() {}))::test);
                   ^
  compiler message file broken: key=compiler.misc.cant.resolve.args arguments=method, test, , , {4}, {5}, {6}, {7}

Where compiler message file broken seems to be something incomprehensible. Is it a bug or I am missing something?
