REPL/compiler: @static var x = 42 crashes compiler

[scabug]

when i do this in the REPL

import annotation.static
@static var x = 42

I get a stacktrace and at the end

That entry seems to have slain the compiler.  Shall I replay
your session? I can re-run each line except the last one.
[y/n]

btw

import annotation.static
@static val x = 42

does that too

but

import annotation.static
@static def x = 42

not

This works in the REPL

import annotation.static
object Test {
  @static
  var x = 42
}

This crashes the REPL and compiler:

import annotation.static
class Test {
  @static
  def x = 42
}
