If I use something other than a comment following the "if" statement line, I can reproduce the original behavior in a master build from yesterday.  For example, replace "#do something" with "''" (an empty string) or just "bar".

(I am *guessing* the original reporter's code had at least one statement in the "if" block.  It's not valid syntax otherwise.)
