spring-loaded: Multiple NullPointerException's in SpringLoadedPreProcessor

I’m using Grails 3.0.4, which in turn depends on org.springframework:springloaded: -> 1.2.4.RELEASE and during application start I get multiple exceptions like the following:

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.springsource.loaded.agent.SpringLoadedPreProcessor.preProcess(SpringLoadedPreProcessor.java:217)
at org.springsource.loaded.agent.ClassPreProcessorAgentAdapter.transform(ClassPreProcessorAgentAdapter.java:107)
... 135 more
java.lang.RuntimeException: Reloading agent exited via exception, please raise a jira

The stack trace even includes a couple of my classes, which were not changed at all:

Exceptions don’t crash the application and reloading seems to work fine, but it pollutes the log which is really annoying.
