i execute the following piece of cshell under dynix 3.0.12:

#! /bin/csh
if(0) then
if(1) then
echo cant get here
else
echo bug
endif
endif

i get the following output:

bug

the shell is matching the "else" with the first, outermost "if", not with
the second, nested "if". can anyone tell me if this is fixed under 3.0.17?
if not, why not? thanks.
