I checked and it seems fine, I thikn I failed to just if and else
for a secondary check, looks good to me, can you resend and also
address any discrepancies on CRDA git tree with what should be
there since I did merge the AUTO patches already, if those need
reverting please specify, otherwise we'll need the parser to also
support that.
