> An equivalent example in Scala will use the exec() implementation from B, as asserted.  Groovy will take the implementation from the last declared trait, C, which inherits the implementation from A but does not define its own implementation.  I think Groovy should use the implementation from the last declared trait that defines its own implementation.
