I think so.


The generated documentation from this doesn't correctly show namespaces.

The class is not a child Entry of the namespace as far as I can see.

What I typically do:
- Copy the contents of the namespace to current->program
- in a second pass (so restarting the lexical scanner) parse the body of th=
e
namespace or class (one should do this recursively to support nested classe=
s
in nested namespaces...)

Look at parseCompounds() versus parseMain() in src/pyscanner.l for an
example.
