Description

Executing the code below

            class A {}
            class B extends A {}
            interface Contract {
                A method()
            }
            abstract class AbstractContract implements Contract {}
            class ContractImpl extends AbstractContract {
                B method(String foo='default') { new B() }
            }
            new ContractImpl().method()

fails because ContractImpl#super$1$method():A tries to call Contract#method.
