Description Al Thomas 2017-01-03 18:19:16 UTC 
In Vala the following compiles:

void main () {
  new Test ();
}
class Test {
}

In Genie the following:

init
	pass
class Test
	pass

produces the error:
test.gs:4.2-4.5: error: syntax error, expected declaration  but got `pass' with previous `tab indent'

Empty classes are useful for stubbing classes during development.
