That's just the normal pre-DIP-1000 error you get when taking the
address of any local (`ref` or not). Allowing `&some_local` is
pretty much the point of DIP 1000, so it's expected that the old
error doesn't appear anymore.
There is a bug for sure, though. If `ref` implies `scope`, there
should be a new error ("cannot take address of scope parameter").
If `scope` is not implied, it's ok that the function compiles,
but then it shouldn't be possible to call it on a local.
