Cannot define array of struct when struct definition is another module

[pd-giz-dave]

Describe the bug

I have a struct definition in module consts and in module draw I want to declare an array of Point's like this: mut points := &[]consts.Point{} but it generates a compile error of "unexpected token {, expecting (". Example below:

bug_consts.v:

module bug_consts
pub struct Point {
pub:
	x f32
	y f32
}

bug_draw.v:

module bug_draw
import bug_consts
import consts
type AliasPoint = bug_consts.Point // ToDo: HACK to overcome compiler issue
pub fn bug_compile() []bug_consts.Point {
	mut bad_points := &[]bug_consts.Point{}  // generates compiler error unexpected token `{`, expecting `(`
	mut good_points := &[]AliasPoint{} // compiles OK
	return *bad_points  // I cannot return the type I want, returning good_points is the wrong type, casting using 'as' didn't work
}

Expected Behavior

No compile errors

Current Behavior

Compiler says:

bug_draw/bug_draw.v:9:39: error: unexpected token {, expecting (
7 |
8 | pub fn bug_compile() []bug_consts.Point {
9 | mut bad_points := &[]bug_consts.Point{} // generates compiler error unexpected token {, expecting (
| ^
