VerifyError with exceptions occurring inside of lazy vals (even if they are caught)

Hey guys,

This is on Scala 2.8.1 on OS X Snow Leopard,

Given the following code:
object ReflectiveAccess {
def getClassFor[T](fqn: String, classloader: ClassLoader): Option[Class[T]] = {
    assert(fqn ne null)

    lazy val a =
      try { Option(classloader.loadClass(fqn).asInstanceOf[Class[T]]) } catch { case c: ClassNotFoundException => None }
    lazy val b =
      try { Option(Thread.currentThread.getContextClassLoader.loadClass(fqn).asInstanceOf[Class[T]]) } catch { case c: ClassNotFoundException => None }
    lazy val c =
      try { Option(this.getClass.getClassLoader.loadClass(fqn).asInstanceOf[Class[T]]) } catch { case c: ClassNotFoundException => None }
    lazy val d =
      try { Option(Class.forName(fqn).asInstanceOf[Class[T]]) } catch { case c: ClassNotFoundException => None }

    if(a.isDefined) a
    else if (b.isDefined) b
    else if (c.isDefined) c
    else if (d.isDefined) d
    else None
  }
}

When running the code:

Should I open a ticket?
