If I remove = "World"; from the auto property, it works. It looks like it can't weave when there is a default value for auto properties.

Thank you. I'll investigate.

@pauldotknopf This is an interesting case because the error message that is happening is because of a dangling reference to the backing field in the constructor, when it is being initialized.

I'll see what I can do with this, but it is a bit intricate because it is an initial value, that should not trigger the setter.
