Description Paul Harmon

The following code snippet results in an incorrect IR being produced. The IRs do not currently have a way to express annotations overridden for for fields contained in a record:

record rec1
	field1 rec2;
end
record rec2
	field2 rec3;
end
record rec3
	field3 string {};
end

library lib1

	rec1 rec1 {field1{field2{field3{currencySymbol = "$$"}}}};


end
