gradle >= 4.0 fails to build htm.java

[bbohannan]

I'm running gradle 4.1 on macOS. I noticed a warning from gradle 3.4.1 on ubuntu that

Configuring child specs of a copy task at execution time of the task has been deprecated 
and is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 4.0. Consider configuring the spec during 
configuration time, or using a separate task to do the configuration.

sure enough, gradle 4.1 reports (and fails to build htm.java)

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':jmhJar'.
> You cannot add child specs at execution time. Consider configuring this task during configuration time or using a separate task to do the configuration.

Why'd you close this?

[bbohannan]

stupid user tricks. Hit the "Close and comment". Didn't mean to. Should still be open.
