55 1.5 rillig # misleading anyway, that piece of code is probably not necessary. The wrong
56 1.5 rillig # condition was added in var.c 1.185 from 2014-05-19.

58 1.5 rillig # To trigger this difference, the variable assignment must use the assignment

60 1.5 rillig # be 2 expressions that create a parse error, which in this case is ':OX'.
