Well, there were actually two bugs that are triggered by that code, one in the core of the compiler and one in the semantic analyzer. It would have probably taken me significantly less time if I knew how to use a debugger. But compilers are among the most complicated pieces of software, perhaps only less complicated than operating systems.
You don't know how to use a debugger? I foresee a great future for you as a programmer.
