line breaks in #if

It appears that Velocity 1.4 doesn't like line breaks inside the
parentheses following an #if.

I tried code like the following:

  #if($mightBeNull
      && $mightBeNull == $testValue)

and Velocity threw a org.apache.velocity.exception.ParseErrorException.

Removing the line feed fixed the problem.

Is this on purpose or will a later version allow line feeds?

The (unreleased) 1.5 version allows this.  Use the nightly snapshot if you 
want to get a sneak preview.

Best,
