As a perfectionist, I like to validate that everything build and work to a certain extent. Before submitting a pull request, I want to at least have a Gradle installation from my branch. So far, this have been cause me more pain which result in much MUCH slow development pace for new pull request. I may be attacking the problem the wrong way, but here the failure I'm having every time I try to execute ./gradlew install -Pgradle_installPath=... :core:compileGroovy startup failed: General error during conversion: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Unable to load class org.gradle.groovy.scripts.DefaultScript due to missing dependency org/gradle/api/internal/plugins/DefaultObjectConfigurationAction

I hope to get this resolve soon so I can submit my pending changes. -- Daniel
