>Description:
The construct

	if attr1
		defflag X
	elifdef attr2
		defflag Y
	else
		defflag Y : Z
	endif

is broken.  It appears to execute both "Y" commands, resulting in an
error message (due to redefinition of Y).
	
>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:
Unknown.

However, the following is a workaround (although it increases the
depth of the if...endif code):

	if attr1
		defflag X
	else
	if attr2
		defflag Y
	else
	if attr3
		defflag Y : Z
	endif
	endif
	endif
