I can figure out if this error message or feature issue because it works when i compile it with winless compiler

So yeah, it took a while because I’ve entirely forgotten how my AppVeyor setup actually works. Anyway, the nuget is up now, so feel free to test it out:

http://www.nuget.org/packages/dotless/1.5.3-beta1

It’s still a prerelease, but if nothing seems to blow up in the next few days, I think I’m going to pull the trigger and release it as 1.5.3.

I think the winless compiler uses less.js, which is the reference implementation, so this is probably a missing feature or a bug in dotless.

Can you post a complete minimal example I could try this out with?
