Research direction

Start by downloading bootstrap.js and reproducing the failure with `jrunscript bootstrap.js update-force-pristine` on Oracle JDK 8, then inspect the code around bootstrap.js:329 and the remote updater invocation. Confirm the fix by rerunning the same command in a fresh Java 8 environment without the argument type mismatch.
