RE: [sv-bc] merge error on timescale

My view of `timescale is that it is just like any other compiler
directive. It is not a statement itself, but effects the processing of
certain statements that follow. In this case, it only effects the
processing of the definition of the design units that follow it. I see
no confusion with statements in $unit.
