    Description

      I just did a fresh build with ./gradlew dist on master.

      When running ./bin/groovyConsole with JDK 6 from that build I get an java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError exception and groovyConsole won't startup:

      ./bin/groovyConsole

      The reason is that the groovy-nio module is built with the 51.0 class file format. Removing the groovy-nio makes groovyConsole startup again.
