Question: sequence of export variables in a module matter

hi all,

swapping variables in the export line of a module changes its behavior.

First Example (works fine):

restart;
mp:= module() option package;
export mult, f2;
mult:=proc(v) return(3*v) end proc;
f2 :=proc(v) mult(v); end proc;
end module;

savelibname:="E:\\tmp";
savelib('mp');

restart;
libname := libname, "E:\\tmp";

with(mp);
mp:-f2(5);
mp:-mult(4);

# Output: [f2,mult], 15, 12

Second Example (notice: "export mult, f2;" is now "export f2, mult;")

restart;
mp:= module() option package;
export f2, mult;
mult:=proc(v) return(3*v) end proc;
f2 :=proc(v) mult(v); end proc;
end module;

savelibname:="E:\\tmp";
savelib('mp');

restart;
libname := libname, "E:\\tmp";

with(mp);
mp:-f2(5);
mp:-mult(4);

# Output: [f2,mult], mult(5), mult(4)

Why didn't I get [f2,mult], 15, 12?

Without the "savelib-stuff" in the second example anything is fine.

Third Example

restart;
mp:= module() option package;
export f2, mult;
mult:=proc(v) return(3*v) end proc;
f2 :=proc(v) mult(v); end proc;
end module;

mp:-f2(5);

mp:-mult(4);

# Output: [f2,mult], 15, 12

This seems a little weird to me. Can anyone explain this?

Thanks in advance!
