[REBOL] Parser seems to have bug - different results on multiple calls. Re:(4)

[ingo]

Hi Brett,

maybe this little func 'll show you what's happening ...

test: func [] [
    s1: "" 
    s2: copy "" 
    append s1 "Hi, I'm changed" 
    append s2 "I'm not ..." 
    source test 
]

>> test
test: func [][
    s1: "Hi, I'm changed" 
    s2: copy "" 
    append s1 "Hi, I'm changed" 
    append s2 "I'm not ..." 
    source test
]

You see, s1 has literally been changed in the source-code, 
s2 has not. (It's one of the Rebol traps everyone has to
fall into once.)


I hope this helps

Ingo
