I'm trying to import Groovy HEAD (currently 20b87e9) into Eclipse (4.20,
STS 4.11). When I do so, I'm getting a pair of class of errors:

- Circular dependencies (groovy-$module depends on -test and -xml)

I think that for the work I'm trying to do (enhancements to
DefaultGroovyMethods), this might not be a blocker, but is there a known
solution?

- A required Java SE 15 JDK

I tried to add the Java 15 JDK with sdkman, but on all the standard options
(Adopt, Azul, etc.) I only see Java 11 and then a jump straight to Java 16.
I can install a 16 JDK, but Eclipse will complain, and there's always the
theoretical question of some surprise incompatibility. My understanding was
that Groovy 4 is buildable on Java 10 (
https://groovy-lang.org/releasenotes/groovy-4.0.html#Groovy4.0-requirements);
is there a particular reason why Eclipse is expecting 15?
