The following code fails with WrongConstant when running ./gradlew lint under AGP 8.6.1. It passes with AGP 8.6.0.

Likely regression from https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/364261817

Error: Must be one or more of: AndroidPackageManager.GET_ACTIVITIES.toLong(), GET_SIGNING_CERTIFICATES.toLong() [WrongConstant]
      val one = PackageInfoFlagsCompat.of(GET_SIGNING_CERTIFICATES.toLong())
                                          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Error: Must be one or more of: AndroidPackageManager.GET_ACTIVITIES.toLong(), GET_SIGNING_CERTIFICATES.toLong() [WrongConstant]
      val two = PackageInfoFlagsCompat.of(PackageManager.GET_ACTIVITIES.toLong())
                                          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Minimal Reproducible Example

package io.github.davidallison.myapplication

import android.content.pm.PackageManager
import androidx.annotation.LongDef
import android.content.pm.PackageManager as AndroidPackageManager

fun wrongConstantError() {
    // usage: ./gradlew lint
    // fails with WrongConstant on 8.6.1, passes on 8.6.0
    val one = PackageInfoFlagsCompat.of(GET_SIGNING_CERTIFICATES.toLong())
    val two = PackageInfoFlagsCompat.of(PackageManager.GET_ACTIVITIES.toLong())
}

class PackageInfoFlagsCompat private constructor(@PackageInfoFlagsBits value: Long) {
    companion object {
        fun of(@PackageInfoFlagsBits value: Long): PackageInfoFlagsCompat = PackageInfoFlagsCompat(value)
    }
}
const val GET_SIGNING_CERTIFICATES = 0x08000000 // API 28

@LongDef(
    flag = true,
    value = [
        AndroidPackageManager.GET_ACTIVITIES.toLong(),
        GET_SIGNING_CERTIFICATES.toLong(),
    ]
)
@Retention(AnnotationRetention.SOURCE)
annotation class PackageInfoFlagsBits

    lint {
        disable += "GradleDependency"
        disable += "AndroidGradlePluginVersion"
        enable += "WrongConstant"
    }

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

Download & extract MyApplication2.zip
./gradlew lint - fails
libs.versions.toml: change AGP to 8.6.0
./gradlew lint - passes
