>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8940
>             Project: Groovy
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Compiler
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.16
>            Reporter: Eric Milles
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: 2.5.8
>
>
> Java allows this:
> {code:java}
> package foobar;
> @interface Java {
> }
> {code}
> Groovy 2.4 fails for the equivalent:
> {code:groovy}
> package foobar
> import groovy.transform.PackageScope
> @PackageScope @interface Groovy {
> }
> {code}
> {code}
> Annotation @groovy.transform.PackageScope is not allowed on element ANNOTATION
>  @ line 3, column 1.
>    @PackageScope @interface Groovy {
>    ^
> {code}
> NOTE: This works in Groovy 2.5, but it is not clear from the changelogs which 
> change is responsible.  Could the change that fixed be identified so I can 
> try my hand at a minimal patch for 2.4?
