OK, problem solved!

There is a module in this file that I didn't write. If has inside
the module a WHILE loop written like this:

WHILE t lt 5 DO BEGIN t = t * 10 & ipow = ipow +1 & ENDWHILE

When I write the WHILE loop like this, all documentation
works as expected!

WHILE t lt 5 DO BEGIN
t = t * 10 & ipow = ipow +1
ENDWHILE

Who woulda known!?

Cheers,

David
