Unexpected nullptr

[rmrfslashhome]

# test.mpl
drop: [v:;];

foo: [
  object: value:;;
  value @object.!value
  [object.value drop] call
];

{} 0i32 {} [
  object: {
    value: 0nx 0i32 addressToReference;
  };

  @object 42 foo

  object.value new
] "main" exportFunction

command

mplc test.mpl

output

test.mpl(17,16): error, [new], accessing nullptr
test.mpl(18,10): [exportFunction], called from here
test.mpl(1,1): [], called from here

expected

Compilation succeeds

The problem is somehow caused by the line [object.value drop] call, because without it the code does compile.
