Re: [m-users.] Problem with DCG producing false negative

hm, it makes sense that the dcg rule should be semidet or det. These
are the problems I had when trying to change the rules.

1)
a07.m:011: In `tls'(out, out, in, out):
a07.m:011:   error: determinism declaration not satisfied.
a07.m:011:   Declared `semidet', inferred `nondet'.
a07.m:011:   The reasons for the difference are the following.
a07.m:012:   Disjunction has multiple clauses with solutions.
a07.m:013:   Call to `alib.seq'(out, in, out) can succeed more than once.
a07.m:014:   Call to `alib.seq'(out, in, out) can succeed more than once.

2) after changing alib.seq to semidet (changing to det also gives the
same error)
a07.m:011: In `tls'(out, out, in, out):
a07.m:011:   error: determinism declaration not satisfied.
a07.m:011:   Declared `semidet', inferred `nondet'.
a07.m:011:   The reason for the difference is the following.
a07.m:012:   Disjunction has multiple clauses with solutions.

I assume that `any_true(abba,[X0|X])' is causing this but i do not
know how to fix it. For now I am separating the logic from the DCG.
