I wouldn't mind if it was required to have no space between the
"f" and the "(" in the f(a,b) form.  If that was the case, then
the above could be interpreted as the "f a,b" form.  That would
remove the ambiguity and make the the "f a,b" syntactically
cleaner in my opinion.

I was using a 1.9CVS version to test this.  I guess it is a
bug.
