The InvokeDynamic and BootstrapMethod changes move some class members around. So any app that writes a serialized version of the BCEL internal data structures and re-reads later would have to regenerate those files. Our tools do not do this; I have no idea if this is common. On the other hand, these changes are the largest single set of diffs so if you are close to release this would probably mean starting the test/verification cycle from the top.
