It's an error in the code, actually.  Fixed in CVS on the 14th.  It  
was actually caused by a change in the definition of the "assert"  
macro in perl 5.8.8.  The old definition had a semicolon in it, the  
new one does not.  Our code should've had the semicolon anyway, but  
for some reason did not.

Until 1.117 is released, the fix is trivial --- just add a semicolon  
after the "assert" on the previous line.
