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 make it "correct".
I think it is OK for other BFC commands to exist within a BFC NOCERTIFY
file, but that parsers should treat them as comments.
Thanks for the reminder that I do need to get this fixed.

| (...) insist? Did you mean await? The whole file including primitives should be BFC compliant to have the CERTIFY. (...) Yes, a NOCERTIFY can be considered as a (temporary) turn-off-BFC, and other BFC statements should silently be ignored. /Lars (22 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
