I forgot the reference (even if, as I said, the bug itself is not very 
important):

[1] http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1115

(I later read a previous thread that talked about the compiler being 
brittle when it comes to the order of defining thing. I guess that might 
explain an even older bug I had posted?
