spring-boot: Application Startup issue (java.lang.ArrayStoreException: sun.reflect.annotation.TypeNotPresentExceptionProxy) with Spring boot 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT

Here is the system info.

$ uname -a; java -version
Darwin sanbook.local 16.3.0 Darwin Kernel Version 16.3.0: Thu Nov 17 20:23:58 PST 2016; root:xnu-3789.31.2~1/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64 i386 MacBookPro13,3 Darwin

Spring boot 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT

When we start the app we get below error. I guess this is due some internal restructure that is going on in 2.0.0. So far I have been able to keep our app running by referring to newer classes but not getting path forward with this. Appreciate your help in this.
