Jira (PUP-1985) Allow class & define parameters to reference earlier parameters

When an argument is given it can be referenced. I think it gets even more weir when you also use resource default expressions (i.e. Foo { x => 'value'} ) due to the lazyness of the evaluation of those. This is not easily fixed for the 3x defines and classes.
