Description

This script:

class Baz {
    static void main(args) {
        println new Inner().inner()
    }
    static class Inner implements Bar {
        def inner() {
            FOO
        }
    }
}

interface Foo {
    int FOO = 1
}

interface Bar extends Foo {
    int BAR = 3
}

Fails with:

Apparent variable 'FOO' was found in a static scope but doesn't refer to a local variable, static field or class...

Looks like an unintended side effect of fixing GROOVY-9598:
