&EXPORT must be in the outermost lexical scope of the compilation unit. Which...uh...it appears it should be here! I suspect the compiler is sneaking a secret extra scope in as a result of the unit declaration. Can we fix that? Yes for module/class/grammar. But for roles, not really as they're generic and the parameter has to go somewhere. But that makes a weird discontinuity. Hmmm. :-)
