[GROOVY-7187] Static method calls in AST Transformations fail when multiple scripts are called after each other.

Description

A script has an annotation on a variable, for example:

@Input("some.input.reference")
def input

An AST Transformation adds a method that initializes the input reference and the declaration is transformed to:

def input = someMethod("some.input.reference")

The someMethod() method contains a staticMethodCall.

If several scripts that are instrumented this way are called after each other then in the second script always a GroovyBug exception occurs, see attachment.

If the script is called stand-alone then everything is fine.

The order in which the scripts is called doesn't matter.

I included a more detailed code example in the attachment.

It seems there is some kind of bug with static method calls in AST transformations.
