Running this program results in a NullPointerException

program fetch type BasicProgram {}
  function main()
    try
      fileSeparator String = SysLib.getProperty("file.separator");
       syslib.writestdout("property is " + fileSeparator);
    onException(oops AnyException)
       Syslib.writeStdout("Got undesired exception " + oops.message);
    end
   end
end

Fixed by the work in Bug 346334 which solved the problem of how to manage access to a RunUnit.  The null pointer was happening because of a previous, abandoned, attempt at a solution.
