+ // Some possible references: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se9/jls9.pdf 5.1.6 (narrowing reference conversion)
+ // On Java 9 the test GenericsTests.testAfterReturningWithWildcardVar will fail because this code below
+ // used to find Set and List were the same, but now finds they are not. (so it doesn't put out the unchecked
+ // conversion message). However the code "List l = (List)someSet;" still compiles on 9 - so is this code bogus?
