The funny thing about this example is that the whole point of having
";;" be "end" is that you could write

  class Foo
    def foo; "foo" ;;
  end

right?  Even so, I really don���t see the point, beyond being able to
write the following:

  if something
    if something_else
       ���
    else
       ���
    ;;;;

  other_statement

Sort of semi-pythonish or something.
