Scala Compiler crash: What's wrong here?

Question

I was starting to write a unit test for an X500PrincipalBuilder class in Scala. Here's my test code:

import org.junit.runner.RunWith
import org.scalatest.WordSpec
import org.scalatest.junit.JUnitRunner
import org.scalatest.matchers.ShouldMatchers._
import org.scalatest.prop.PropertyChecks._
import javax.security.auth.x500.X500Principal

@RunWith(classOf[JUnitRunner])
class X500PrincipalBuilderTest extends WordSpec {

  "An X500 Principal Builder" when {
    "given a list of attributes" should {
      "properly build an X500 Principal" in {
        val table = Table(
          ("expected", "attributes"),
          ("CN=Duke", List("CN" -> "Duke"))
        )
        forAll (table) { (expected, attributes) =>
          val b = new X500PrincipalBuilder
          attributes foreach { case (key, value) => b addAttribute (key, value) }
          b.build should equal (new X500Principal(expected))
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

However, when compiling this code with Scala 2.9.2 or 2.10.0, I get a compiler crash. Here's the initial stacktrace from 2.9.2:

[ERROR] error: java.lang.Error: no-symbol does not have owner

... (removed some hundred stack frames)

The output from 2.10.0 seems to be some incomprehensible pseudo code to generate an AST:

WTF does this mean and how can I work around it?

I haven't been able to convince my build to use 2.10.1 yet because the dependency coordinates for scalatest and scalacheck don't follow the usual pattern when using 2.10.1 - grrr. — Christian Schlichtherle

This crash seems to be caused by SI-6317, where using an anonymous partial function (with case (...) =>) sometime slays the compiler.

There is a fix given in the ticket, but it seems like it hasn't made its way into 2.10.1 (see adriaanm/scala@08dffa3 versus scala/[email protected]), but it does give a workaround:

Giving foreach a function that does a match itself instead of giving it a PartialFunction:

attributes foreach { _ match { case (key, value) => b addAttribute (key, value)}}
