Uh. Probably not exactly your case, but I managed to "reproduce" them.

The first case is easy if you just override the setter of a property, and is more a feature of the language rather than a bug.

The second case is more tricky, but by using a generic delegate you can manage to trick it by doing an unchecked cast. Got the same warning in IntelliJ as well.
