With two classes:
JavaB.java--public class JavaB { public int i = 1; }
ScalaC.java--class ScalaC { val b = new JavaB() }
Causes the line "val b" to get a "JavaB does not have a constructor" error. Note that technically there are no real Problems, this is just a line error.
Making the error goes away requires manually changing JavaB (e.g. set i = 2), then manually changing ScalaC (e.g. rename val b to val c). Basically, incrementally compiling each file, then the "no constructor" error goes away.
Hitting clean build makes it come back.
I'm using r20428.

// file: /src/A.scala
class A {
  var a = 10
}

// file: /src/B.scala
class B {
  val a = new A
}

class B {
  val a = new A
}

class B {
  val a = new A
}
