Got a weird puzzler with receivers.  

I have a codeblock to which a receiver has been passed.  The outer codeblock also has a receiver of the same type.  For some reason, when I attempt to call a method on the receiver, it’s calling the outer codeblock’s receiver instead of the inner codeblock’s receiver.

I’ve checked in the debugger and $receiver is the correct inner receiver within the inner codeblock, and yet when the method is called the $receiver within it becomes the outer codeblock’s receiver.

Hope this makes sense, anyone have any ideas?

ianclarke: How is your `ul` defined?
I wasn't able to reproduce it, see this snippet: <https://try.kotlinlang.org/#/UserProjects/6lghlke9al5s0dm1bk1l080da8/m9g58nct4gn1a48vn261oh01l0>

Hey, sorry for the slow reply.  I figured it out once I used the DSL annotation - turned out that the parameterized type was different for the child receiver so it used the parent receiver instead.
