As it happens, the generated code for this is identical to that generated for
the same thing without the `else'.  Thus, the information that the `else' was
ever there has been completely lost and cannot be regenerated from nothing
during unparsing.  I agree that this is a bit of a shame, since the MOO doesn't
preserve your source code for you, but that's just the way it is... :-/
