  Hello all, I am just getting going with nim and love it! I am encountering a strange error when trying to use system constants

  Given

  var a:string = system.hostCPU
  echo a
  Run

  I get Error: undeclared identifier: 'hostCPU'

  Is this a compiler error or is something wrong with my environment? Thanks!

  $ nim --version

  Works on my Linux x86_64 system with 0.10.2 (as well as current devel branch).

  Don't name your test program system.
