[DISCUSS] Fixes for Basic lang in 4.1 line

Hi All,

I have a PR-150 [1] that fixes a few issues with the Basic lang in AOO41X.
These were fixes by Damjan back in 2015 in trunk and AOO42X.

What I'm not sure is if leaving them out of 4.1.x was intentional or not 
due to not wanting to change API's or whatever.
To me these seem more like bug fixes and not API changes so I think we 
should bring them in.

The third issue was pointed out on the QA list recently by Lucien Mathay 
**so I included it as well. [2].
The example provided was the inspiration for the unit test I included 
for it.

One fix is a bug in the CLng (convert to Long) function and the other 
two fix issues with single line if statements.

For discussion:
Should we included these fixes in 4.1.x?

Personally, I also think these are bugfixes. So +1 for merging into AOO41X.

+1 from me.

Just to prevent any misunderstanding:

4.1.x is EOL when a 4.2.0 release is finally published. And even then we 
can decide to have both branches in parallel for some time.

But as we have no date for 4.2.0, 4.1.x is and will be the most current 
release branch.

Thanks for the explanation!

I just wanted to make sure there wasn't another reason.

Best regards,

Based on Damjan's explanation of why he didn't backport them a +1 from 
me as well.

The only reason I didn't include them myself, is that back then I expected
4.2.0 to be out soon, and didn't want to waste time backporting to 4.1.x
which was about to be EOL.
