[TIMOB-12115] iOS: utils.js commonjs module will not work on iOS

problem

If I define a commonjs module named *utils.js* or *Utils.js* in my iOS project, I get a runtime error when trying to access it. The error looks like the attached screenshot when used with the test case below. This issue does *not* occur on Android or Mobileweb. This error also does not occur if I move utils.js into a folder. I assume that iOS is overwriting utils.js within an internally used module of it own, or something to that effect.

expected behavior

I should be able to define and use a commonjs module named utils.js or Utils.js in my iOS project.

test case

utils.js

exports.sayHi = function() {
    alert('hi');
}

app.js

require('utils').sayHi();
