There are many many things that should be valid Scala but are not, due to type check limitation. All kinds of times you should be able to infer the type, but the compiler cannot and you have to start naming types. Not sure this is really a "bug" but more of a wart. Sure is annoying when they happen, but not a "unique" thing to Java8 lambdas by any measure.
