[Bug-apl] Gnu APL gives syntax error when scalar variables are used for any axis other than the last axis

[Frederick H. Pitts]

Gentle people,

        In Gnu APL SVN revision 104, load the attached BrackIndexTest.apl.gz
(after uncompressing it) with

        apl -f BrackIndex.apl

Observe that M[ I ; 1 ] gives a syntax error when used as the target of
an assignment while M[ 1 ; I ] does not.  A syntax error also occurs if
scalar variables are used in both axis positions.  Oddly enough, with 3
dimensional matrices the syntax error occurs on the 2nd axis but not the
first and last.
