Hi Mike,

At least for my simple test cases, the fix appears to be working, e.g.:

Method(FOO)
{
	If (ECOK)
	{
		Return("Broken")
	}
	Else
	{
		Return("Works")
	}
}
Method(ECOK)
{
	Return(0)
}

I believe this is what the fix was targetted at. This may have been
necessary but not sufficient to fix the problem.

Can you confirm that ECOK is returning 0?

Regards -- Andy
