Description

The multidimensional arrays work perfectly with primitive types and standard classes from the JDK (or from libraries too I guess), but it seems there's a problem if you're using a class defined in the same source unit. So for instance, the following code will fail:

groovy> class Foo {}
groovy> ff = new Foo[3][4]
groovy> go
Caught: java.lang.ClassFormatError: CommandLine (Illegal Class name "Foo[][]")
