                 Key: VELOCITY-681
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-681
             Project: Velocity
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Engine
    Affects Versions: 1.6.1
            Reporter: Sergiu Dumitriu
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 1.6.2, 1.7


The fix for VELOCITY-615 was too radical, since it completely disables #setting 
new values to the formal arguments. A minimalistic example that used to work up 
until 1.6 is:

{noformat}
#macro(myMacro $result)
  #set($result = 'some value')
#end
#myMacro($x)
$x
{/noformat}
which prints $x (as an undefined variable).
