I can confirm that, just had a chat at RDF4JUsers
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21topic/rdf4j-users/p-uqdjgGMHs>
where I was told that:

"In terms of getting the query to parse, why not just reorder the
BIND() to the front of the group?  This is what blazegraph is doing
internally. "

So you guessed right (and we are going to treat those queries the same way).

Thanks and greetings,

Adrian
