Bug#877799: groovy: GCJ java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

[Aaron M. Ucko]

Package: groovy
Version: 2.4.8-2
Severity: important
Tags: upstream
User: debian-hppa at lists.debian.org
Control: affects -1 src:kodi

Builds of kodi for hppa (admittedly not a release architecture) have
been failing because Groovy reports an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException:

hppa is notable for using GCJ in lieu of OpenJDK, which doesn't
support that architecture.  (hurd-i386, also not a release
architecture, is in the same boat; there, however, kodi is in dep-wait
on fontforge over #877795.)  Could you please take a look?

Thanks!
