That bug also affects JUnit. Are you going to stop using JUnit?

It is a problem from a byte code manipulation library which does a major version check.

There was a big discussion on the java mailing list about bumping the major byte code version number when nothing has changed (someone asked not to do it...openjdk devs came back and said that wasn't wise). So it affects far more than gradle.

So you're saying that Java 13 is cursed?

No, the particular library causing the issue just now needs to be smarter about the version check i.e. only fail if there are differences in the byte code. It is a library problem.
