wat2wasm failing with: unexpected token get_local, expected ).

[AloisReitbauer]

This is the wat file used:

(module
    (func $how_old (param $year_now i32) (param $year_born i32) (result i32)
        get_local $year_now
        get_local $year_born
        i32.sub)

    (export "how_old" (func $how_old))
)

I am using the binary for 1.0.28

I also tried with 1.0.27. Same error.

I also tried with 1.0.24 and there it works. (Saw a similar issue posted where this solved the problem)

You'll have to use local.get now instead of `get_local -- the names were changed in 2018 before the WebAssembly 1.0 spec was finalized, and wabt dropped support for the pre-1.0 names late last year (#1792). (Dup of #1820)

Thank you that worked!
