Details

This crashes the compiler with a SyntaxError:

class C {
    function C(p) : x=p {}
    var x;
}

The reason is that code that processes the constructor requires the x property to be defined lexically before C.  This is wrong; the constructor can't be processed until the entire class body has been seen.
