When rebuilding on Debian Sid, I get a successful build so whatever is causing the problem seems to be Ubuntu specific. I don't really know why since the asm package (which would be high on the list of suspects) is in sync with Debian...

Furthermore, this leads to the following problems:
kotlinx-coroutines require libkotlinx-atomicfu-java and thus is stuck waiting for dependencies (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kotlinx-coroutines/1.0.1-2/+build/25553023)
Both of these packages are build dependencies for kotlin (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kotlin/1.3.31+~1.0.1+~0.11.12-6/+build/25587999)

Though it should be noted that prior to the dependency wait problem, kotlin had similar ASM9 issues, so it might be a common problem.
