Mark,
Do you mean to say that this delay was not present in 2.0.x? I thought I had
to deal with that ever since the 2.0.x. Anyway, I tried to look through the
source, but it seems to me the code covers the case where there is nothing on
the AddToFunc line, and is not doing any excessive searching. So, in the end,
I came out no wiser than before.
As a workaround, can't you tell your preprocessor to put a '\' at the end of
the AddToFunc line, and remove the + from the next.
This should probably be considered a bug.
