Anyone knows why "super message; message" does not compile?

Göran Krampe
Hey all!

We discussed this on IRC the other day and I looked at bytecodes etc but
was not really sure why this is not allowed to do.

We are of course also aware that this is an extremely odd thing to do -
but I got curious to the reason for it not working.

regards, Göran

I think that main complication here is with making a parser & AST
changes, able to deal with cascaded supersends.
