Scala-Reference: error about name bindings?

Hello,

I'm trying to compile the code showned in chapter 2 of Scala Reference from May 11, 2011, pages 16 and 17, about import and bindings.

Unfortunatly, it seems to not be consistent with what scalac 2.8.1 and 2.9.0-1 implements, and so I believe I made some kind of mistake. Please, could somebody explains what I'm doing wrong ?


Here is the actual code I try to compile (copy/paste from the spec does not work really well, so perhaps it's just an error here):


=========
package P {
  object X { val x = 1; val y = 2 }
}
package Q {
  object X { val x = true; val y = "" }
}

package P {
  import Console._
  object A {
    println("L4: "+X)
    object B {
      import Q._
      println("L7: "+X)
      import X._
      println("L8: "+x)
      object C {
        val x = 3
        println("L12: "+x)
        { import Q.X._
        println("L14: "+x)
        import X.y
        println("L16: "+y)
        { val x = "abc"
          import P.X._
          println("L19: "+y)
          println("L20: "+x)
}}}}}}

=========

scalac 2.8.1 errors:
