[Bug classpath/25941] New: XMLEncoder: endless recursion when serialising anonymous class

[thebohemian at gmx dot net]

Attempting to do something like this:

XMLEncoder xe = new XMLEncoder(System.out);
xe.writeObject(new HashMap() {} );
                             ^^

Results in an endless recursion. The JDK successfully recovers from the error,
that the anonymous class' constructor is not reachable.
