Ok, please report a bug together with a sample file (if needed) and sample code which allows to reproduce the problem. Maybe the unit test from the previous bug got removed/disabled and thus we miss the one CT class in the smaller jar. Also different Java versions can have subtle differences and we might be calling some JRE functionality internally which might explain the Java 7/8 difference.
Using the full jar in either 3.9 or the latest version is a workaround that you can use in the meantime, just make sure to use only jars from one version of poi as some of the problems you describe sound like mixing different versions.
