Node-related bug?

The following syntax causes a compiler error: "Duplicate identifier 'Node' found in module 'map' and module 'list'."

Local myn:Node<String> = myStringList.AddFirst("Test")

And yet this compiles okay:

Local myn := myStringList.AddFirst("Test")

The explicit type declaration shouldn't cause such an error, um, should it?

Runnable example:

Strict

Function Main:Int()
	
	Local myStringList:StringList = New StringList()
	
	'Local myn := myStringList.AddFirst("Test")
	Local myn:Node<String> = myStringList.AddFirst("Test")
	
	Print String(myn.Value())
	
	Return 0
End

It's 'coz there's a node class in both the list and map modules, so you need to go:

Local myn:list.Node<String>=...

This is pretty dumb - I didn't realise node was gonna be used publicly when I wrote it. If I had, I would have used ListNode and MapNode instead.

Ah, okay. Thanks.

The compiler's automatic type inference is clever enough to know. :)
