That's the one. Agreed that I don't think there is likely to be any
showstopper, since Pipeline doesn't use any esoteric syntax, but somebody
has to do it, and we should at least alert the Jenkins people before we EOL
a core component of a major CI tool.

Hi folks,
Groovy 2.4.x hasn't been something we have progressed for some time.
