BUG: gpfault in compiler

ar-2
I have the following expression in a method in a .pac. It causes Dolphin to
crash when the package is installed:

#(   ##(XObject) ##(View) ##(Presenter) ##(IDispatch)
        ##(Myclass2) ##(Myclass2) ##(Myclass3) )

If this is evaluated in the text pane of a browser when those classes are not
defined,  it causes a gpfault trying to read location 0x9 (and may crash the
image). But if evaluated in a workspace it just gives a normal error (XObject
not defined).

In my test I have UndefinedObject selected in the CHB. The Class definition
tab is selected and this code is pasted underneath the class definition.

this is DPRO 4.01.3

does this bug report even rate a response?

Alan,

Hang on. You post a bug report on a Sunday and expect a reply within 6hrs of
the next working day? Seems a bit rich to me for free support. Even if you
had taken the paid support option I doubt most people would expect that
level of service.

Anyway, since you ask, it does look like a bug and has been recorded as
defect #450.
