Another problem other than the classloaders is all the reflection classes

get Groovy working would be to rip out all the dynamic classes and MOP. The
result would be a language that is not really Groovy.

Android has all the java.lang.reflect classes. So I think it's possible to build a Groovy style MetaClass as long as you don't try the dynamically compile call dispatch helpers.
