RE: [sv-bc] Questions on export statemet

Hi Surya,

The LRM says explicitly: "A package export may precede a corresponding
package import."

Note that in your example, nothing is exported because nothing is
imported. Each identifier to be exported must appear at least once in
the package. That appearance must cause the actual import.
