Description

I have try use standard Singleton pattern in groovy script:

public class SingleTest {
	private static final Instance = new SingleTest();

	private SingleTest(){ }

	public SingleTest getInstance(){
		return Instance;
	}

	void test(){
		println 'test';
	}
}

SingleTest test = new SingleTest();
test.test();

But groovy instantiate object even if constructor marked as private:

D:\imus\IdeaProjects\imus\instup\src\main\java\test-private-constructor>groovy test.groovy
test

P.S. Sorry for noise with http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GROOVY-5012 I'd expect what in cloning process I can be able change description of bug.
