[Oberon] IMPORT Modules: why does order matter?

I have an Out.Mod and compiled it on FPGA. I can send it if you want. I added a simple printf() to it with support of \n, \t, %d and %x

> For example the „Oberon Core“ / Project Oberon 2013 (?) compiler I use does not even have the „numerical case“ statement implemented (which is defined for the language „Oberon 07“).

I added nunerical case to the compiler without adapting the RISC-5 instruction set (in contrast to Chris‘ approach)

Yes, I get this error as well. Fixing that would need some code. ORB.Import and ORB.ThisModule have to be adapted.
