I *thought* I was using 1.4.7, but apparently was still on 1.4.4. When I updated to 1.4.7 the problem went away. Apologies!

A lot of unit test would break in XStream if there is a general problem of this sort with Java 8, but the test suite runs perfectly with current Java 8 versions (https://bamboo-ci.codehaus.org/browse/XSTREAM).
