Given the "illegal qualifier" errors that appeared, I'm guessing the
issue is that "Options" is also a property of the THistoryList class
as well as a local variable. Technically speaking though, this is a
regression unless it's to be documented (and hence break backward
compatibility) that if you have a property and a local variable of the
same name, the property takes precedence.
Nonsense.
That would mean that adding any new property in any object is a breaking
change because the same name can be used in any possible with-statement
at any place in any program or any local variable etc.
Short: every new property introduces a risk of clashes.
