varArg properties breaks when using most types.

I have searched existing issues and this is not a duplicate

Version

Config.Dependencies.litho is "0.14.0"

    implementation("com.facebook.litho", "litho-core", Config.Dependencies.litho)
    implementation("com.facebook.litho", "litho-widget", Config.Dependencies.litho)
    compileOnly("com.facebook.litho", "litho-annotations", Config.Dependencies.litho)
    kapt("com.facebook.litho", "litho-annotations", Config.Dependencies.litho)
    kapt("com.facebook.litho", "litho-processor", Config.Dependencies.litho)

Issues and Steps to Reproduce

Create either LayoutSpec or MountSpec.
Add @Prop(varArg = "name") names : List<String> as a property.
Code should compile fine here.
Change types to something else outside of basic types (IE: Color, TextView, etc)
Code will no longer compile, giving the following two errors in the build panel, from the generated component .java file. error: illegal start of type public Builder color(@NotNull) ? extends Color color) { error: ';' expected public Builder color(@NotNull) ? extends Color color) {

Expected Behavior

Code should compile fine, and I should be able to use the component in the way demonstrated in the documentation for whatever type I’d need to be a varArg.

Link to Code

Example code in Kotlin.

@LayoutSpec
object TestComponentSpec {
    @OnCreateLayout
    fun onCreateLayout(
        c : ComponentContext,
        @Prop(varArg = "color") colors : List<Color>
    ) : Component {
        return Row.create(c).build()
    }
}
