Variable definition issue ?

This is now fixed with a new version 2.06 - 69 that can be downloaded from here

Hi, writing code, I've loose time around the variable definition order:

function TestCrc()
dim appo$,ln
appo$="012345678"
ln=strlen(appo$)
print appo$
endf

This give ERROR (33) variable not found at (vlit) at runtime

Changing the variable definition order the problem don't appear

function TestCrc()
dim ln,appo$
appo$="012345678"
ln=strlen(appo$)
print appo$
endf

or another case:

function TestCrc()
  dim r,ln
  dim appo$[10]
  dim h$[1]="0"
  dim l$[1]="0"
  appo$ ="012345678"
  print appo$
endf

won't work but

function TestCrc()
  dim r,ln
  dim appo$[10]="012345678"
  dim h$[1]="0"
  dim l$[1]="0"
  print appo$
endf

is ok
anyone know the reason ?
I'm working with mBasic 2.06 201226067
