I'm certain this used to work:

But I've found that now, anything inside the public static block is not  
actually static. I get an error attempting to call Foo.bar(). If I do  
this:

class Foo
{
     public
     {
         static void bar() {}
     }
}

...it works as expected. I tested with the override attribute, in case  
the handling of attributes had changed while I was away, but it works  
fine using the first form. I assume this is a bug, or a regression. Am I  
correct?

I would have expected the first form to work.  You can file as a bug and  
see what happens.  Worst case it gets closed as invalid :)
