Sorry, I should have provided the code I think it might be.  I honestly don't seen anything wrong with it, because it worked on 1.05 (which I now can't download and run because it doesn't work)

[code]
struct Value {
	union {		
		struct {
			uint length;
			char[]* keys;
			Value* values;
		}
		struct {
			union {
				Value[] sf;
				Value function(inout Value self,inout Value cc,Value[] arguments ...) nf;
			}
			ubyte arity;
		}
		Value[] a;
		char[] s;
		bool b;
		int i;
		double d;
		d_time dt;
	}
struct Value {
	union {		
		struct {
			uint length;
			char[]* keys;
			Value* values;
		}
		struct {
			union {
				Value[] sf;
				Value function(inout Value self,inout Value cc,Value[] arguments ...) nf;
			}
			ubyte arity;
		}
		Value[] a;
		char[] s;
		bool b;
		int i;
		double d;
		d_time dt;
	}
struct Value {
	union {		
		struct {
			uint length;
			char[]* keys;
			Value* values;
		}
		struct {
			union {
				Value[] sf;
				Value function(inout Value self,inout Value cc,Value[] arguments ...) nf;
			}
			ubyte arity;
		}
		Value[] a;
		char[] s;
		bool b;
		int i;
		double d;
		d_time dt;
	}
