Line number issue under java 8 and guice 4.0 beta 4

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Failure when trying to report injection errors when use of static methods on 
interface is present.

The failure comes from the line number stuff using ASM:

Exception in thread "main" 
com.google.common.util.concurrent.UncheckedExecutionException: 
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: INVOKESPECIAL/STATIC on interfaces require 
ASM 5
       at com.google.common.cache.LocalCache$Segment.get(LocalCache.java:2201)
       at com.google.common.cache.LocalCache.get(LocalCache.java:3934)
       at com.google.common.cache.LocalCache.getOrLoad(LocalCache.java:3938)
       at com.google.common.cache.LocalCache$LocalLoadingCache.get(LocalCache.java:4821)
       at com.google.common.cache.LocalCache$LocalLoadingCache.getUnchecked(LocalCache.java:4827)
       at com.google.inject.internal.util.StackTraceElements.forMember(StackTraceElements.java:66)
       at com.google.inject.internal.Errors.formatSource(Errors.java:764)
       at com.google.inject.internal.Errors.formatSource(Errors.java:743)
       at com.google.inject.internal.Errors.formatInjectionPoint(Errors.java:794)

Here is a standalone example to reproduce:

import com.google.inject.AbstractModule;
import com.google.inject.Guice;

public class Test
{
    public Test()
    {
        throw new RuntimeException("No chance");
    }

    void doStatic()
    {
        X.something();
    }

    interface X
    {
        static int something()
        {
            return 1;
        }
    }

    private static class TestModule extends AbstractModule
    {

        @Override
        protected void configure()
        {
            bind(Test.class).asEagerSingleton();
        }

    }

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        try
        {
            System.err.println("ABOUT TO GO");
            Guice.createInjector(new TestModule());
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

Same for me. It's very easy to stumble upon this problem. All you need to do is 
call one of the many new static methods for example on Comparator or Stream and 
you're dead if an exception occurs.

I'm having this issue but I cannot figure out where it is coming from. 
Everything seems like it should work fine. I get that exact error: 
INVOKESPECIAL/STATIC on interfaces require ASM 5. Is there something I can do 
to the exact issue?

Switching to the HEAD (possibly even the beta, not sure) version should fix 
this particular issue.

Please let us know if you still see the issue after using the latest code.
