So the interpreter sees whitespace IN THE SOURCE CODE as something it should
translate to .il code as pointers to various undefined garbage?!? And then
attempt to run it? What part of the Eu syntax is defined as "...and this
lack of keyword controls how whitespace is processed..."? It's not only 
whitespace, it's done it to me before with a "--" added to a program to 
comment out a trace(1) line.


Kat,
one of those who complained about this sort of bug before.
