I'm also facing lots of issues with Spock tests that only support Groovy 4. Even the simple code below does not work in plain Groovy 4.x.
{code:groovy}
class StaticPropertyIssueTest {
    static def STR = "test"

    static void main(String[] args) {
        def dataClass = new DataClass(value: "test")

        dataClass.with {
            assert value == STR
        }
    }
}

class DataClass {
    String value
    String get(String str) { "Hello" }
} {code}

>          Components: groovy-runtime
>    Affects Versions: 4.0.13
>         Environment: Windows 10, Groovy 4.0.13, Java 17.0.8

> When accessing a private static final field from a Closure within the same class Groovy 4 throws a MissingPropertyException. The code works in Groovy 2.5.22 & 3.0.18.
> The real instance of the object needs to be a subtype of the class containing the constant.
> See attached code to reproduce.
> *Expected behavior:*
> The code runs without error
> *Actual behavior:*
> Groovy 4 throws:
> {{groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: field for class: FirstEvent}}
> {{    at BaseEvent$_init_closure1.doCall(Test.groovy:7)}}
> {{    at BaseEvent.init(Test.groovy:7)}}
> {{    at Test.run(Test.groovy:15)}}
> *Notes:*
> Interestingly if you remove the static keyword from {color:#0033b3}private static final {color}{color:#000000}String {color}{color:#871094}field {color}= {color:#067d17}"name"{color}
> it fails in all three versions 2.5.22, 3.0.18 & 4.0.13 with a {{{}MissingPropertyException{}}}.
> I would expect that the code should also work for these cases.
>  
> The problem came up in a discussion about a Spock issue [#1544|https://github.com/spockframework/spock/issues/1544].
