Issue with failable initializer

Good day,

I have a simple class defined like so:

class MyUUID {

	var _uuid: java.util.UUID

	public init?() {
		_uuid = java.util.UUID.randomUUID()
	}
}

but I get an error in the init? that says ‘Variable expected’. If I make it a non failable initializer, it works. I also tested in an Xcode playground, and it works there either way. I know your intention is that Silver is not 100% drop-in replacement for Swift, but this seems like a simple case that ought to work.

Thank you,
Tyler

PS Marc Hoffman, I uploaded a simple test project to Google Drive if you want to take a look.
