Re: [sv-bc] search rules for type vs interface

Daniel,

    I'm sorry to report that only the context can determine
which definition of T applies in each circumstance.
In the case you've asked about, T can only refer to the
interface, whereas in "module top( input T i );", it
can only refer to the typedef.  The fact that this is
beyond the capabilities of context-free scanners and
parsers is worth noting.
