Hi Eliot,

I pushed this to the Inbox, because I noticed there was an undeclared 
variable used by this method. Given how the code was intended to work, 
this typo meant that the code didn't work.
I also noticed that the Compiler package has failing tests. I didn't 
investigate if those failures are related to this method in any way, but 
it seemed safer not to push this to the Trunk yet.
I'm sure this fix is an improvement, but there may be further changes 
needed.
