Better error messages when using Java's array init syntax

Declaring and populating an array in line such as:

Object[] objArr = new Object[]

;

causes the following exception:

Exception in thread "main" org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed, ModelNumberParser.groovy: 7: unexpected token: , @ line 7, column 45

It would be better, especially for Java people just learning Groovy, to say something like "Java initialization syntax not supported, use [x, y, z] as DesiredClass[]."

EDIT: probably filed against a JSR version.
