Wow! That was strange... If you look at my original property, I'm 
missing the bool return type. I don't have auto or void as the return 
type either. Compiling this gives no warnings!

If I add bool as return type, the duplicate @property is dropped.

Any idea why this even compiles? The documentation doesn't say anything 
about @property automatically adding a return type.
