Subject: 
BFC problem with 970s01.dat?

I think part 970s01.dat has a BFC problem.  I'm working on my BFC parsing in
LDView, and it printed an error in this file, so I went and looked at it.
At the beginning of the file, it says:

0 BFC NOCERTIFY

Then later in the file, it says:

0 BFC INVERTNEXT

My understanding is that if you have a NOCERTIFY in a file, you shouldn't
have any other BFC commands.  They certainly won't do any good, since the
NOCERTIFY says not to use BFC.  There's also a comment made by (I think)
Chris Dee that says:

0 2002-06-10 CWD made BFC compliant

Perhaps it was supposed to say 0 BFC CERTIFY instead of 0 BFC NOCERTIFY?  If
the file is like this on purpose, is it valid?  Is it valid to have BFC
commands after a NOCERTIFY (which would presumably just be ignored)?

(...) IIRC, my claim of making this BFC compliant was found to be incorrect when reviewed in the PT. So to expedite its release, I suspect Steve did an admin edit of the 0 BFC CERTIFY line (since we only insist on BFC compliance for primitives) to (...)
