> I have the following Groovy program.
> {code:groovy}
> class Foo<T> {
>     T f;
>     Foo (T f) {
>       this.f = f;
>     }
> }
> interface Bar{}
> class Baz<T> implements Bar {}
> @groovy.transform.TypeChecked
> class Main  {
>   public static void main(String[] args) {
>     Foo<Bar> x1 = new Foo<Bar>(new Baz<Integer>()) // Compiles
>     Foo<Bar> x2 = new Foo<>(new Baz<Integer>()) // Does not compile
>   }
> }
> {code}
> h2. Actual Behavior
> The program does not compile, and I get the following error.
> {code:java}
> org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup 
> failed:
> Main.groovy: 16: [Static type checking] - Incompatible generic argument 
> types. Cannot assign Foo <Baz> to: Foo <Bar>
>  @ line 16, column 19.
>        Foo<Bar> x2 = new Foo<>(new Baz<Integer>())
>                      ^
> 1 error
> {code}
> h2. Expected Behavior
> Compile successfully.
> h2. Affected Version
> I have also tested it with the compiler from Master (commit: 
> 666627b3be7718e3265fc42b473060bc73f42e2f).
> h2. Comment
> If I remove the type parameter from Baz, then it only fails when compiled 
> with the compiler from the Master.
>  Specifically, the following test case compiles with 3.0.7 and 4.0.0-alpha-2 
> compilers but fails with the same message as the previous test case when 
> using the compiler from the Master.
> {code:groovy}
> class Foo<T> {
>     T f;
>     Foo (T f) {
>       this.f = f;
>     }
> }
> interface Bar{}
> class Baz implements Bar {}
> @groovy.transform.TypeChecked
> class Main  {
>   public static void main(String[] args) {
>     Foo<Bar> x1 = new Foo<Bar>(new Baz()) // Compiles
>     Foo<Bar> x2 = new Foo<>(new Baz()) // Does not compile
>   }
> }
> {code}
