Indeed, largely a refactoring without additional features... probably the widest-ranging refactoring in ASM's history though. In any case, we're going to pick it up for Spring Framework 5.1, also revisiting ASM's approach for accepting unknown class file versions. For the time being, our lenient ASM 6.0 fork in Spring Framework 5.0.x works against JDK 10 just as well.

Since ASM 6.2 is out in the meantime, we'll upgrade to that version straight away, also bumping up CGLIB to 3.2.7 for Spring Framework 5.1 RC1.

I've upgraded our ASM fork to ASM master (effectively 6.2 GA + a few recent patches) which is likely the state that we'll release our 5.1 RC1 against in about two weeks.
