Dollar sign in variable name doesn't produce an error

Reported by Christopher Stawarz | January 4th, 2013 @ 02:39 PM

The attached experiment should fail to load, as it includes an assignment to an invalid variable name (x$y). However, it both loads and runs, with no errors or warnings.

It looks like the bad variable name is converted into an UnresolvedReferenceVariable, but the unresolved reference never results in an error.
