Description

The Specs auto-detection seems to do something unfortunate whenever the specification object is accompanied by a companion class. The most common case for this is when a Specs runner class accompanies the specification (for tools like Eclipse's JUnit View). For example:

import org.specs._
import runner.JUnit4

object MySpecs extends Specification {
...
}

class MySpecs extends JUnit4(MySpec)

When running `buildr` with this source in the src/spec/scala/ directory, the following error is produced:

Running java MySpecs
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main
The following tests failed:
MySpecs
Buildr aborted!
Tests failed!
