It would be greatly preferable if IGNORE_CLOSE_BRACES were respected,
so that we don't have yet another exception that has to be documented
and watched out for.  However, I can't opine on whether it'd be worth
doing, since I don't know how hard it'd be and won't be working on it
in any case.

(Sorry if this has already been settled; I'm just now catching up on
some older threads.)
