I only did a grep "IF:". That's what happens if you try to be clever. :-}

Hm. Now I see that you are matching the blocks seperately, once for COPY,
once for LOCK and once for ADMIN. And that *does* work correctly unless you
are nesting a COPY block inside a COPY block, but that would be nonsense
anyway. So, yes, you are right, there will not be any problems with that.

Once people start really using it, it will be very hard to get it out again.
By the way, what *are* the urgent problems? Is the list on sourceforge
correct?
