I can confirm that the same thing happens with the Mac version (3.5b9, MacOS
9.2.2, PPC G3 266, 192MB RAM).

It seems that "defined" and "initialized" is not the same thing, and you
just found a way to make an identifier that is defined but not initialized.
From the fact that there's a special parse error message for that, it seems
that the possible existence of uninitialized identifiers was foreseen by the
programmers, so it wouldn't be a bug.
