Re: Issue with "view" access control

The only thing regarding this error is that I do not believe bison is
involved in any way shape or form.  As far as I can see, the only thing
bison/yacc is used for is date parsing and parsing of the dbconfig file.
All of the expression parsing is done via a hand-rolled tokenizer.  My
gut feeling from Friday's quick code review is that perhaps the
expression in cmds.c had called the wrong function in the chain
responsible for parsing the expressions.  It made a short-cut that
didn't consume the spaces.  Why this would work in 4.0 and not 4.1 is
beyond me.

I'm hoping to carve out some time tomorrow morning/afternoon to look at
this more closely and roll an alpha tarball.  I'll keep you posted as to
what I find.

Chad
