Sorry for my delay to handle this bug.
To be honest, I'm not an expert about groovy or xbmc internals, so I
was wondering if you can provide me with a more succint explanation
about what you think is broken with groovy.

In your first message I saw you satisfied xbmc build-depends from
experimental but your classpath had references to the version from
unstable.

Right now I have a grave bug in groovy/gradle (#744337) since it
looks like I'm unable to build a working package for 1.8.6 release
with current default JDK and libraries from unstable.

1.8.6-1 used to work for a long time but as soon as I recompiled for
1.8.6-2 I'm seeing breakage in several places so I'm unable to even
reproduce this bug right now.

Maybe this is just 1.8.6 showing its age and I should focus on getting
2.x in unstable on time for jessie.

Sorry I can't be more useful for this bug at this moment.

Cheers,
