When a module declares `A :: B; B :: u64;` and both a flat import and a namespaced import export `B :: u8`, the flat import's B was discovered by flatTypeAuthorCount before the own B :: u64 was processed — binding A to u8 and silently truncating values. Fix: ownConstDeclIsPendingAlias guard added to selectNominalLeaf between the own-alias check and the flat-import walk. If the querying module has an own const_decl for the name that is not yet in type_aliases_by_source, return .pending so the forward-alias fixpoint resolves it correctly. Regression: examples/0830-modules-flat-ns-same-name-forward-alias.sx (x : A = 300 prints 300, not 44). 541/541 tests pass.

# RESOLVED — 0107: forward alias binds to flat-import same-name type during initial scanDecls
|
|
|
|
**Root cause:** `selectNominalLeaf` checked flat-import authors (`flatTypeAuthorCount`) before
|
|
checking whether the querying module's own `const_decl` for the same name was still pending.
|
|
When both a flat import AND a namespaced import exported `B :: u8`, and the own module had
|
|
`A :: B; B :: u64;` (B declared after A), the flat import's `u8` was returned as `.resolved`
|
|
before the own `B :: u64` was processed — binding A to `u8` and silently truncating values.
|
|
|
|
**Symptom:** `x : A = 300` printed `44` (u8 truncation of 300) when both imports had `B :: u8`.
|
|
The namespaced import alone was not sufficient; both flat AND namespaced were required.
|
|
|
|
**Fix:** Added `ownConstDeclIsPendingAlias(from, name)` check between the own-alias check and
|
|
the flat-import walk in `selectNominalLeaf`. If the querying module has an own `const_decl` for
|
|
`name` that is not yet in `type_aliases_by_source`, return `.pending` — deferring to the
|
|
forward-alias fixpoint instead of accepting a flat import's version.
|
|
|
|
**Regression test:** `examples/0830-modules-flat-ns-same-name-forward-alias.sx` (exit 0,
|
|
prints 300 — the u64 value, not the u8 truncation).
|
|
|
|
**Fix in:** `src/ir/lower.zig` — `selectNominalLeaf` + new `ownConstDeclIsPendingAlias`.
