Nope, it's URL.

So, it turns out, destURL was a let, not a var. That made the difference. Sure 
seems like a bad diagnostic.

However, there's also a problem in that the documentation in Xcode 8 is:

        func setResourceValues(_ keyedValues: [URLResourceKey : Any]) throws

But the Xcode generated interface shows it as:

        public mutating func setResourceValues(_ values: URLResourceValues) 
throws

And incidentally, it seems Xcode's code completion still isn't reliable, in 
that I can command-click on URL, but not on setResourceValues (I just get a ? 
appearing).

I'll write a bug.
