Possible bug in StackFrameInfo#getByteCodeIndex?

[David Lloyd]

I was doing some research related to AccessController, and I noted
this code [1] in StackFrameInfo#getByteCodeIndex():

@Override
public int getByteCodeIndex() {
    // bci not available for native methods
    if (isNativeMethod())
        return -1;

    return bci;
}

Now bci is of type short, and given the spec of the method, should the
return not be:

    return bci & 0xffff;

instead?  Else it would return wrong values for methods with more than
32767 bytecodes in them.
