  .El
+ .Sh BUGS
+ The evaluation of
+ .Ar expression
+ in a test is very simple-minded. Currently, the only form that works is
+ .Ql .if ${VAR} op something
+ For instance, you should write tests as
+ .Ql .if ${VAR} = "string"
+ not the other way around, which doesn't work.
+ .Pp
+ For loops are expanded before tests, so a fragment such as:
+ .Bd -literal
+ \&.for TMACHINE in ${SHARED_ARCHS}
+ \&.if ${TMACHINE} = ${MACHINE}
+      ...
+ \&.endif
+ \&.fi
+ .Ed
+ won't work, and should be rewritten the other way around.
