Take in consideration the following example, extend the java.nio.Path interface adding a new method named "isEmpty".

The extension method signature would be:

def static boolean isEmpty( Path path ) {
:
}

But the above method is never invoked because the UnixPath which implements the Path interface declares a private method isEmpty() as well.
