Description

Currently a cast exception is thrown in that case.

Note this only applies in Groovy 5. Groovy 4 converted primitive arrays into lists before flattening them. Earlier alphas of Groovy 5 avoided creating such lists but we inadvertently didn't cater for primitives during array processing which is where the cast exception crept in.
