Paul King commented on GROOVY-8539:
-----------------------------------
Groovy is like Java and C (but not Ruby) in that it doesn't have a &&=
operator. So the alternative format is {{b[0] = b[0] & false}} but agreed the
binary compound-assignment operators should work and currently don't.
> Groovy fails to compile assignment operators on boolean array

> Reporter: Tony Yoshicedo

> Groovy fails to compile:
> boolean[] b = [true]; b[0] &= false;
> with an error:
> Caught: BUG! exception in phase 'class generation' in source unit
> 'script_from_command_line' should not reach here
> BUG! exception in phase 'class generation' in source unit
> 'script_from_command_line' should not reach here
> when running:
> groovy -e "boolean[] b = [true]; b[0] &= false;"
> Alternative formats work fine, such as:
