Bracket mismatch error

[Michael Coffman]

I am currently running:

  Version: GNU cfengine-1.5.4

On ~300 hpux systems

I have started getting the following error on the following system:

system:

   HP-UX snide B.10.20 A 9000/785 2007062015 two-user license

Error:
   cfengine:snide: Bracket mismatch, in [class= (s@^EM-hM-|], shouldn't happen, 
level = 1

This error comes as cfengine is trying to call an installable class
copy.updatedfiles.  If I change the name of the installable class to
copy.modfiles, it works fine.

I am not a C expert but I tried to look at the code and this appears to
be some type of buffer/memory issue.  I increased bufsize to 8192 as a
shot in the dark and recompiled but this had no affect.

Any clues.

Thanks.
