This isn't a bug; it's a compilation error from a problem in your own code.

"Previous definition" goes along with "redefinition of ____" and means you've defined something more than once. That means, for example, you might have a case like this:
mob
  var/HP

mob/player
  var/HP   // this is redundant; it'll cause a bug

That means you've defined it in more than one place. Each variable should have only one definition.

Example 1 (will not compile)

mob
var
HP <font color=yellow>// (def 1)</font>

player
var
HP = 100 <font color=yellow>// (def 2)</font>

Example 2 (will compile)
mob
var
HP

player
HP = 100
