LoadError when yielding tuple with field name identical to local variable name

[marc-hofmann]

The following

@resumable function my_generator()
    x = 0
    @yield (x = 1, )
end

fails with

ERROR: LoadError: syntax: invalid named tuple field name "_fsmi.x"

No error is raised if the field name is changed:

@resumable function my_generator()
    x = 0
    @yield (y = 1, )
end

Julia 1.0.2, ResumableFunctions 0.4.2

Hi

Error is logical. The symbol x is the name of a slot in the method and all symbols x are replaced by _fsmi.x to transform the function in a state machine. I will try to bypass this general rule for named tuples. I keep you informed of progress!

Kind regards
