Issue with pooled connection in Korma with Java 1.8 (mac os x yosemite)

Minimal setup to reproduce the problem. Note that that with Java 1.7 this works fine.

  $ java -version
  java version "1.8.0_40-ea"
  Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_40-ea-b15)
  Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.40-b18, mixed mode)

lein new testkorma
Then update dependencies for "your" database:

(defproject testkorma "0.1.0-SNAPSHOT"
  :description "FIXME: write description"
  :url "http://example.com/FIXME"
  :license {:name "Eclipse Public License"
            :url "http://www.eclipse.org/legal/epl-v10.html"}
  :dependencies [[org.clojure/clojure "1.6.0"]
                 [korma "0.4.0"]
                 ;; here should go the dependencies for the database you are targetting
                 [org.hsqldb/hsqldb "2.3.2"]
                 [org.xerial/sqlite-jdbc "3.7.2"]])

in core_test.clj:

(ns testkorma.core-test
  (:require [clojure.test :refer :all]
            [korma.db :refer [defdb]]
            [korma.core :refer :all]
            [testkorma.core :refer :all]))

(deftest a-test
  (defdb sqlite-db {
    :classname "org.sqlite.JDBC"
    :subprotocol "sqlite"
    :subname "resources/test.sqlite"
    :make-pool? true ;; Without this it works fine
    ;; but each db query reinstantiates a connection...
    })
  (defentity toto)                  ;; up to here everything is OK
  (println "select" (select toto))) ;; this will fail
