So, what is right and what is wrong? And what is the "real world" you
quote?
Okay, I'll grant that. :)
After thinking about it, (and based on the initial response of "can we
add this as a FAQ to non-bugs"), perhaps the problem is in the error
message more than the behaviour. My assumption was this was a problem in
the new parser and that it wasn't resolving because something had
confused it. Is there a way to differentiate between this and a variable
that absolutely positively does not exist, and issue a different error
message? I think that would at least stop more incorrect bug reports on
the issue.
At either rate, sorry to waste your time on this...I'll try to be a
little more researched in the future.
