Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: A$I2.clone()Ljava/lang/Object;

INVOKEINTERFACE A$I2.clone ()Ljava/lang/Object; causes the problem. I think that interface method resolution (https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jvms/se8/html/jvms-5.html#jvms-5.4.3.4) is not implemented according to the spec in the VM:

1. If C is not an interface, interface method resolution throws an IncompatibleClassChangeError.

A$I2 is an interface, so continue

1. Otherwise, if C declares a method with the name and descriptor specified by the interface method reference, method lookup succeeds.

A$I2 does not define a method named clone, so continue

1. Otherwise, if the class Object declares a method with the name and descriptor specified by the interface method reference, which has its ACC_PUBLIC flag set and does not have its ACC_STATIC flag set, method lookup succeeds.

Object does not define a public method named clone, so continue

1. Otherwise, if the maximally-specific superinterface methods (§5.4.3.3) of C for the name and descriptor specified by the method reference include exactly one method that does not have its ACC_ABSTRACT flag set, then this method is chosen and method lookup succeeds.

Here the JVM should find A$I1.clone, but it seems it doesn't.
