21# The commit from 2005-05-01 intended to detect this situation, but it failed
22# to do this since the call to is_token had its arguments switched.  They were
23# expected as (str, token, token_len) but were actually passed as (token, str,
24# token_len).  This made is_token return true even if the directive was
25# directly followed by alphanumerical characters, which was wrong.  The
26# typical cases produced an error message such as "Malformed conditional
27# (x 123)", while the intended error message was "Unknown directive".
28#
29# Back at that time, the commits only modified the main code but did not add
30# the corresponding unit tests.  This allowed the bug to hide for more than
31# 15 years.
32#
33# Since 2020-11-10, the correct error message is produced.  The '.ifx' is no
34# longer interpreted as a variant of '.if', therefore the '.error' and '.else'
35# are interpreted as ordinary directives, producing the error messages
36# "if-less else" and "if-less endif".
