The strategy that we've taken (since we do not have the build model yet) is
to have better error-handling on undefined symbols like this.  I've added in
some extra error-handling code this morning that makes that example work in
the Outline view, I will submit a patch today for it.  For the full-parse
scenario (i.e. for indexing) we fully intend to make the choice of parser
and predefined symbols driven by build configuration.

I don't see any checkins from you when I check resource history.  What
exactly was the problem?  Are we using the wrong version of junit or
something?
