No such property: code for class: org.codehaus.groovy.ast.expr.PropertyExpression

After adding some specific code to my project, gradle autoLintGradle began failing with:

Error from [com.netflix.nebula.lint.rule.GradleLintRule$1] processing source file [null]
groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: code for class: org.codehaus.groovy.ast.expr.PropertyExpression

        ...

The code in question that does this is:

configurations {
	myConfiguration
}

tasks.register('myTask', JRubyPrepare) {
	dependencies configurations.myConfiguration
}

The JRubyPrepare task comes from jruby-gradle-plugin but I don't think that matters.
