2.2.3: $Top in templates not working - bug in SSViewer

hi,
i just discovered that in version 2.2.3 (a fresh install) the $Top property is not working.
Example code (put in themes\blackcandy\templates\Page.ss):

$Title //returns page title
<% control Menu(1) %>
$Top.Title //returns nothing
<% end_control %>

In SSViewer.php i came across an interesting line (204):

SSViewer::$topLevel = null;

Commenting this line out makes $Top working again, as some lines before that one (148), $topLevel is properly set.

I'm not upgrading from an older version currently, but i can imagine this causing real trouble. Can anyone confirm it's a very bug? Oder did i miss something?
cheers
max
