Error: "Expected named arguments" in parallel in Jenkins groovy script

I have a Jenkins 2.0 pipeline, with a groovyscript like this:

node('nnh561.raijin') {
    stage 'checkout'
    build('trunk/checkout')

    stage 'build'
    parallel(
        { build('trunk/build/gfortran') },
        { build('trunk/build/ifort') }
    )

}

Each of the individual jobs builds fine, but when I try to run the pipeline, it spits out this error when it hits the parallel step:

Any ideas what might be causing something like that?

Ahh... the pipeline needs a map, not a list. Naming the arguments works:

node('nnh561.raijin') {
    stage 'checkout'{
    build('trunk/checkout')}

    stage 'build'
    parallel (
        'gfortran': { build('trunk/build/gfortran') },
        'ifort': { build('trunk/build/ifort') }
    )
}
