I run into the very same problem (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GRADLE-242)
and I temporarily fixed it for me by patching Ivy:

                 }
             }


After that patch the underlying dependency problem was properly reported and
did not have to spend time on guessing the problem any more.
But this is only a fix in the Ivy sources and not in the Gradle sources...  
I hope there will be a final fix for the problem in 0.5.0.
