Your patch doesn't completely solve the problem, it just masks it off. My
version does remove the root of the problem - it just skips processing
conditionals that shouldn't be processed anyway because they're inside the false
branch of the outer conditional.

Closing bugs on older, no longer supported, releases. Apologies for any lack of
response.

For RPM issues, please try a current release such as Fedora Core 4; if bugs
persist, please open a new issue.
