----------------------------------------------------------------

This works fine: 
{code:groovy}
class Outer {
  private static final String NAME = 'name'

  static abstract class Inner {
    static getName() {
      NAME
    }
  }
}

print Outer.Inner.name
{code}

So it may have something to do with "extends Specification" or 
"GroovyMock(AbstractClassA, global: true)".

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11781
>             Project: Groovy
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 5.0.1
>            Reporter: Björn Kautler
>            Priority: Major
>
> This is a regression in Groovy 5.
> Groovy 2.5, 3.0, and 4.0 it works fine.
> To reproduce:
>  * checkout my {{groovy5}} PR branch of 
> [https://github.com/spockframework/spock/pull/2213]
>  * go to 
> {{org.spockframework.smoke.mock.GroovyMockAbstractGlobalClass.AbstractClassA}}
>  * replace the three {{GroovyMockAbstractGlobalClass.NAME}} by just {{NAME}}
>  * execute {{./gradlew -Dvariant=5.0 -DjavaVersion=11 :spock-specs:test 
> --tests org.spockframework.smoke.mock.GroovyMockAbstractGlobalClass --info}}
> As a result you get an `IllegalArgumentException` with message `object is not 
> an instance of declaring class`.
> I'm not 100% sure whether this is a Groovy bug or Spock bug, but it works 
> fine up to and including Groovy 4.
> If this is not a Groovy bug but a Spock bug, I'd appreciate very much help in 
> how to resolve this on the Spock side.
