I'm betting 8.4, because there is a field named "using" on that line in
8.4 ...

We did clean up C++ keyword uses in the header files in 9.0, but your
report shows it's already gotten broken again. I'm disinclined to fix
it unless someone steps up to create an automated test that will get run
reasonably often. We had that discussion when the patch to rename
keyword-named fields was proposed, and nothing got done, and the current
state of affairs is the entirely predictable result.
