Can't use $ as an attribute name

I sometimes prefix my attributes with $, as $amount. Then, when using it on my templates, I get the following error:

emblem/parser.js:7689
      throw peg$buildException(null, peg$maxFailExpected, peg$maxFailPos);
      ^
SyntaxError: Expected _4BeginStatement or end of input but "\uEFEF" found.

Example code:

div= transaction.$amount

@tmosmant I’ll look soon for a fix, it looks like a parser bug

I’m not 100% sure, but I suspect this may be a good place to start.
