--------------------------------------
[~paulk] Hey, sorry for such a late response. I guess you comment got lost in
the sea of Jira updates I get on a daily basis.
To answer your question, I debugged through the code and found where and why
the error was happening and then just did a git blame and found the commit that
changed and linked it to the Jira issue.

> ------------------------------------------

> Key: GROOVY-9194
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9194
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: groovy-runtime
> Affects Versions: 2.4.17
> Reporter: Joseph Henry
> Priority: Minor
>
> An exception occurs in Groovy if the groovy file contains the character #.
> This happens on linux systems where a script that starts with a # will result
> in an error:
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassFormatError: Illegal class name ""
> in class file
> simply doing this:
> groovy /path/#myfile
> will produce this error.
> This is a regression caused by GROOVY-6641
