Comment 1 Torbjorn Norbye 2007-10-30 21:48:44 UTC 
I can reproduce this. The problem is that the AST does no produce offsets for AliasNodes. The code here was too
simplistic; it needs to go into the document and search for the actual symbol references like the refactoring engine
dones. This will have to wait for the update release.
Comment 2 Erno Mononen 2009-09-17 08:11:40 UTC 
Still valid. Seems like a rather minor annoyance though, so downgrading to a P4.
