I've got a revert PR <https://github.com/apache/groovy/pull/2271> up for the 4.0.x branch and am working on one for 3.x at Eric's suggestion.
Two questions: 1. Do I need to wait on formal approval before merging? I am adding a test here <https://github.com/apache/groovy/pull/2271/files#diff-5247172c04d2a0ddd377ce298baabe70a9f72d21efc3e764e63e2b9fc6c80ad3>, so there is new code, in addition to the revert. 2. Is it fair to assume that 4.0.28 will go out as-is, and this revert will be in 4.0.29?
