Description
Steps to reproduce
esprima.parse('!{ a() { !function* (a = super.b()){} } };')
esprima.parse('class a extends b { c() { function* d(c = super.e()){} } }')
esprima.parse('class a extends b { c() { !function* (c = super.d()){} } }')
esprima.parse('function* a(b){ super.c }')
esprima.parse('!function* (a){ super.b }')
esprima.parse('{ a() { function* b(){ super.c(); } } };')
esprima.parse('!{ a() { !function* (){ super.b(); } } };')
esprima.parse('class a extends b { c() { function* d(){ super.e(); } } }')
esprima.parse('class a extends b { c() { !function* (){ super.d(); } } }')
esprima.parse('class a { constructor() { super(); } }')
esprima.parse('class a extends b { static c() { super(); } }')
esprima.parse('class a extends b { constructor() { !{*constructor() { super(); }}; } }')
Expected output
Should throw an error
Actual output
Outputs a AST tree

Research direction
Start by running the listed esprima.parse reproductions and inspect the parser entry points that handle super expressions, generators, defaults, and class methods. The fix is complete when each invalid example throws an error instead of producing an AST.
