Currently this causes no harm, but I think this should be fixed. It's perfect valid C to terminate a statement with "," instead of ";" - it just has a different meaning. Consider this: #include int main() { if (0) printf("Hello!\n"), printf("Good bye!\n"); return 0; } At a first glance, you'd expect this program to print "Good bye!" - but it does not. Actually, the "," is used here to put the two printf statements into the same block, so this program is the same as: if (0) { printf("Hello!\n"); printf("Good bye!\n"); } Thus, there is no real bug in simple.c here, but of course it would be better style to clean this up and use ";" instead. By the way, two lines earlier there is another line ending in ",": dropped.rec.event = DROPPED_EVENT_ID, Fixed in commit 7ff5920717d413d8b7c3ba13d9, which will be in the upcoming 4.0 release.
