Yes, I see a bug in CRoutineId(), the run-time routine used by
the Translator. From reading the C code, it looks like when
the second "thing_hello" is looked up by routine_id() in thing2.e, 
it would return -1, since it will "see" multiple globals 
with the name "thing_hello", and no namespace has been specified. 
However, according to the scope rules, this is not an error.
It should match the global in the same file as the call
to routine_id(). Multiple globals of the same name, with no namespace
qualifier provided, is only an error when they are in other files, 
not when one is in the same file as the call to routine_id(). 
The interpreter handles this correctly.
I'll fix this tomorrow and check in the change.
