What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Follow instructions how to build frog from dart_bleeding/dart/frog/README.txt
2.Add following test to tests/

~/dart_bleeding/dart/frog$ cat > tests/splitHello.dart << EOF
main() {
print('hello world');
String v = "hello world";
print(v.split(""));
print(v.split(' ')[0]);
print(v.split(' ')[1]);
print(v.splitChars());
}
EOF

3.

What is the expected output?
adam@ubuntu:~/dart_bleeding/dart/frog$ ./frogsh tests/splitHello.dart
hello world
h,e,l,l,o, ,w,o,r,l,d
hello
world
h,e,l,l,o, ,w,o,r,l,d

What do you see instead?
/home/adam/dart_bleeding/dart/frog/lib/string_implementation.dart:76:12: warning: can not resolve _split
    return _split("");
           ^^^^^^
hello world

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.
A larger bug may be that splitChars() cannot be resolved properly.

Replaced _split("") with spliit("") in /dart_bleeding/dart/frog/lib/string_implementation.dart and got the following error instead:
adam@ubuntu:/dart_bleeding/dart/frog$ ./frogsh tests/splitHello.dart
hello world
