[rules-dev] Problems with latests 5.1.SNAPSHOT

[Barry Kaplan]

Before the lastest snapshot I had rules like:

rule "Device is NotOperating" dialect "mvel"
when
  device: Device(connected == true)
  ...
then
  insertLogical(
    DeviceOperatingStateTimeline.start(new DeviceOperatingState(device.id,
NotOperating()))
  )
end

Now I get the error:

Caused by: [Error: unable to access property (null parent): device]
[Near : {... Unknown ....}]

If I simply reference the 'device' variable before the insertLogical then
the rule compiles and works:

then
  Device d = device // System.out.println(device) works as well
  insertLogical(
    DeviceOperatingStateTimeline.start(new DeviceOperatingState(device.id,
NotOperating()))
  )
end

I don't even know where to begin to look for such a cause. I've debugged
deep in the MVEL compilation but no joy. 

Also, many of my other rules no longer compiler, also seemingly mvel
related. I've thunked back to 5.0.1 and now I have green bars again.
