Hi there,

lately, I got bit in my tender parts by this catch, sorta similar to the debate 
of the more-line-expression of late -- this time, though, a line which I 
presumed to be compiled separately is considered a part of the previous command:

===
20 /tmp> <q.groovy 
class foo {
  static bar() { }
  static Closure baz() {
    bar()// ';' here mandatory, or a return on the next line
    { -> }
  }
}
foo.baz()
21 /tmp> /usr/local/groovy-3.0.0-alpha-3/bin/groovy q
Caught: groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: static 
foo.bar() is applicable for argument types: (foo$_baz_closure1) values: 
[foo$_baz_closure1@ae7950d]
...
===

I am not sure whether it can be fixed without breaking other functionalities 
(perhaps not; note e.g., that a 'bar(Closure)' could be added through a 
metaclass dynamically before the call); and even if it could, whether it would 
be worth the effort.

All the best,
OC
