GRAILS-10499: Malformed JSON for Restful Resource of type collection when exposed using HAL

Given a domain object "Person" that is exposed as restful resource

{code:title=Person.groovy|borderStyle=solid}
package com.meltmedia

import grails.rest.Resource;

@resource(uri='/api/persons', formats=['hal', 'json'])
class Person {

String firstName
String middleName
String lastName
String emailAddress

static constraints = {
    firstName size:1..100
    middleName size:1..100, nullable:true
    lastName size:1..100
    emailAddress size:1..255, email:true
}

}
{code}

When I try to access the persons collection
{noformat}
curl -H "Accept: application/hal+json" http://localhost:8080/rest-demo/api/persons
{noformat}

Then my output JSON is not well formed with missing "}" at the end of the response.

{noformat}
{
"_links": {
"self": {
"href": "http://localhost:8080/rest-demo/rest-demo/api/persons",
"hreflang": "en",
"type": "application/hal+json"
}
},
"_embedded": [
{
"_links": {
"self": {
"href": "http://localhost:8080/rest-demo/api/persons/1",
"hreflang": "en",
"type": "application/hal+json"
}
},
"emailAddress": "sukritxxxx@uyyyyy.com",
"firstName": "Sukrit",
"lastName": "Khera"
}
]
{noformat}
