Description:
------------
By mistake (wrong line) I have set a if() within a switch. Example:

$var = 2;
switch ($var)
{
	case 1: break;
	if ($var==2)
	{
		die('here');
	}
}

But that results not in a syntax error. That if() will never execute, so
its useless code. Maybe thats not a bug, but it would help to find
stupid input errors. Thanks :)
