Richard,
I guess I am lucky or there is some other, unknown, issue that is driving
the "shadow" bug. I have occasionally messed up and redeclared a global as a
local and received the error. In V5, as I recall, I would fix it and relaunch
LC as a matter of course, In 6.1.2 RC1, the last time I received the warning,
simply cleaning up code allowed it to run without a restart. Perhaps there is
something buried in the stack file (some vestige you have no control over) that
is driving the issue. I will consider my self lucky for now and hope my luck
doesn't change.
