Description Torbjorn Norbye 2007-02-23 05:43:09 UTC 
This code snippet

x = {:class => "hello"}

gets lexed incorrectly; ":class" is taken to be a symbol followed by a keyword,
rather than a single symbol named :class.

This has some bad effects; this is boiled down from a file from Tim Bray which
reformats incorrectly. The problem is that "class" is taken to be a structural
element which captures its own "end", and so the imbalance causes ever
increasing indentation.
