Is it maybe because Groovy 2.4.8 is supposed to use Gradle 2.3 and that
this build then does not work with Gradle 3.2.1, the version master is
using?
Just tested, and yes, this seems to be the cause. This means you cannot
create the wrapper using Gradle 3.2.1 because the build file is not
compatible.
Besides that... where do we define the gradle version to be used for the
build? If not any gradle version will work we need to specify that in
the build instructions for the source distribution at least.

The README gives bootstrap instructions for building from source. In
particular, you should not copy gradlew from another groovy install.
Instead you can just run any gradle and that will effectively do a
"gradle wrapper" which will get the correct gradle version. Let me
know if that works.
Cheers, Paul.

I copied the 3.2.1 wrapper over and then tried to start... this is what I
got.
Just tried again using another 3.2.1 wrapper and this time I got
