Description

If you copy and paste this Code (The parenthese around the "instance-test" are missing):
"
class Test {
def tt(sth) {
if (!sth instanceof Object) return true
return false
}
}

def ttt = new Test()
"
into groovyConsole and run it, you receve this error message, which does not make sense:

Exception thrown: java.lang.VerifyError: (class: Test, method: tt signature: (Ljava/lang/Object;)Ljava/lang/Object Expecting to find object/array on stack
