Lighttpd fails to start when using the same $HTTP["host"] match in an IF/ELSE form

[calimonk@…]

While adjusting a vhost i have, i encountered that Lighttpd wouldn't start anymore giving an odd error. The reason was quite clear:

$HTTP["host"] =~ "^www\.(mydomain\.co\.uk)(:[0-9]+)?$" {
# Do bla
}

else $HTTP["host"] =~ "^www\.(mydomain\.co\.uk)(:[0-9]+)?$" {
# Do bla
}

else $HTTP["host"] =~ "^(.+\.)?(mydomain\.co\.uk)(:[0-9]+)?$" {
# Redirect the rest
        url.redirect = ( ".*" => "http://www.%2/" )
}

When restarting Lighttpd i get the following error: lighttpd: ./configparser.y:349: yy_reduce: Assertion `yymsp[-3].minor.yy78->context_ndx < yymsp[0].minor.yy78->context_ndx' failed.

Reason is quite simple, i'm using the same IF and ELSE case, however it shouldn't really matter that I do so (even if it makes no sense).

This is a configparser design problem - we won't fix it in 1.4.x as it is not needed if your config makes sense.
