This seems to be a bug.
At least as specified in the Blue Book for Smalltalk-80 the above code should
not be accepted.
And isn't accepted by:
Smalltalk-80 (snapshot from 31 May 1983 10:37:52 am, sources: 1 April 1983)
Squeak 3.8
Squeak 1.18
and an image called xmsmall, that Dan kindly gave me to get at ST-80 fonts.
All of them print:
test: Name is already defined ->self
^self
when you type the above code in the system browser and try to save it.
Greetings
Wolfgang
