Description
Groovysh lets you set & read private member fields, as long as they're static:
groovy> class C { private static x }
groovy> C.x = new Integer(10)
groovy> println C.x
groovy> go
10
Note that it doesn't let you access regular private fields:
groovy> class B { private x }
groovy> b = new B()
groovy> b.x = new Integer(10)
groovy> go
Caught: groovy.lang.IllegalPropertyAccessException: Can not access the
private field x in class B

| GROOVY-1591 | Private Fields Are Accessible From Other Classes |

| GROOVY-1875 | private fields and private methods are not private |

With jsr-03, IllegalPropertyAccessException has been thrown.
But with the current jsr-04-SNAPSHOT (CVS HEAD), it looks to work fine.
Lets get Groovy!
