From the mailing list:

Hello,

I am doing a small pilot with gradle, i am running this on solaris , not on
a linux system.
As soon as i run the script:
% ./gradle
./gradle: syntax error at line 173: `i=$' unexpected
zsh: exit 2 ./gradle

The problem is , sh is not bash, could you change this?
greetings Leon

This is also potentially a problem on Ubuntu (and Debian?) where /bin/sh is Dash not Bash.

I guess the moral of the story is that if the shell is /bin/sh then only Posix shell features should be used. Currently the scripts are using Bash feature so the other option is to specify Bash as the shell.
