+WHATSNEW For 'tconfpy' 1.185    (Sun May  2 03:07:05 CDT 2004)
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+BUGFIX: The content of literal blocks found within False conditional
+        blocks was being reported as a syntax error.  This was 
+        benign, but annoying.  Now all text within literal blocks is
+        not syntax checked, whether or not the enclosing block is True.
