Am I doing something wrong, or is it a compiler bug?

ddd ee () { dd(); ddd h; return h;}

It doesn't like the ddd struct return value which is in another module. 
If I write:

void ee () { dd(); ddd h;}

things are fine.

It seems it seems to be the order the compiler does things.

If it's not a bug, parhaps a better error message would help, if possible.
