+	Uh, I advise trying it before saying that.  A current "bug" in the
+pattern-match code means that it requires the parens.  This may be promoted
+to a feature if it is sufficiently hard to fix (it's in a very tight, complex,
+hard-to-modify assembler module).

erp.  I don't have 2.0 (just a lowly 2500/30 here), but the guy down the
street does, and I've spent a fair amount of time mucking with his machine.
My conclusion-jumping was based on the manual's statements...
