Define each interface in its own file
interface Rs extends Ss { }
interface Ss extends Rs { }
interface Tt extends Tt { }

s.groovy

def ss = {} as Ss

t.groovy

def tt = {} as Tt

groovy s.groovy yields StackOverflownError //unexpected ??
groovy t.groovy yields ClassCircularityError // expected

Jochen, I have done this change on trunk. Do I have to backport it anywhere? Or can I mark it as Fixed?
