[clean-list] Selecting record fields with same names

[Claudio Potenza]

Hello everybody,
I have question about the selection of record fields:

if I create two record types having fields with the same name, I seem
to be incapable to select the fields (I am using the new Clean 2.0).

Example:

 1:  module test
 2:
 3:  import StdEnv
 4: 
 5:  :: Rec1 = {  i:: Int, s:: String, r:: Real  }
 6:  :: Rec2 = {  i:: Int, s:: String }
 7: 
 8:  appendStrings :: Rec1 Rec2 -> String
 9:  appendStrings r1 r2 = r1.s +++ r2.s
10: 
11:  Start=appendStrings {Rec1 | i=0,s="str1",r=0} {Rec2 | i=0,s="str2"}


in line 9 the compiler should be able to tell that 'r1' is of type 'Rec1'
(the function type will tell this), but I get the following error:

   Error [test.icl,9,]: s ambiguous selector specified

Am I forced to have different names for the fields? (The language report
says that this is not the case)
