I was able to see a loader issue when classpath refers to source directory of A and B.  But when I use the target directory, the classes loaded fine.  I added a test case for reference: https://github.com/apache/groovy/commit/4acca2856baf7483b23bdf9002b35a6bf4501da2

> A MultipleCompilationErrorsException is thrown when we try to load a class that has a reference to a nested class via annotation.
> Here a small example:
> We have two classes class A and B. Class A has a reference to the nested class of class B (NestedInB) in the annotation.  Class A can not be loaded except the annotation is removed.

> {code:java}
> package pkg2
> import pkg1.B
> class A { 
> @SuppressWarnings(value = [B.NestedInB.NestedProp])  
>   A() {   
>    String name = B.NestedInB.class.getName();      
>    System.out.println(name);           
>    System.out.println(B.NestedInB.NestedProp);  
>   }
> }

> package pkg1
> import pkg2.A
> public class B {
>       public static final String Prop = "ABCD";
>      B() {
>         A a = new A()
>       }

>     final File mainDirectory = new File("Path to the class A and B");
>     URL url = mainDirectory.getAbsoluteFile().toURI().toURL();
>     groovyClassLoader.addURL(url);
>     groovyClassLoader.addClasspath(mainDirectory.getPath());
>     final Class<?> a = groovyClassLoader.loadClass("pkg2.A");
>     a.newInstance();
