Description

The stub compiler seems to get confused with package-info.groovy, which may need special-casing. This source:

package-info.groovy

@org.hibernate.annotations.GenericGenerator(name = "random-uuid", strategy = "org.hibernate.id.UUIDGenerator")
package my.application.domain.annotation

results in the stub

package-info.java

package my.application..domain.annotation;

import java.lang.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
import java.util.*;
import groovy.lang.*;
import groovy.util.*;
interface package-info
 {
;
}

which predictably fails because package-info is not a valid identifier. Given the semantics of package-info.java (and especially that imports aren't allowed), it might make sense to special-case this and just repeat the input file with a trailing semicolon.
