pixi.js TypeScript global error

To demo the bug in pixijs/pixijs#6445

How to

1. clone this gist git clone git@github.com:JacobFischer/pixi-ts-global-error.git
2. npm install
3. npm run build
4. This should create a dist/ directory, load up dist/index.html in a browser
5. see the following error in the console:

Uncaught ReferenceError: PIXI is not defined
    at eval (index.ts:5)
    at Object../index.ts (index_bundle.js:96)
    at __webpack_require__ (index_bundle.js:20)
    at index_bundle.js:84
    at index_bundle.js:87

index.ts

import { utils } from "pixi.js";

// This will work
utils.skipHello();

console.log("About to use 'PIXI' which is not globally defined");

// Because we imported the "pixi.js" package, there is a side-effect where
// all the pixi.js types polluted the global namespace, however none
// actually exist globally at run time.
// So, this line will blow up.
const sprite = new PIXI.Sprite();

console.log("I will never run!", sprite);
