	I have to verify that -- next week, but I think if it works
	this way anymore at all, then it effectively generates SEPARATE
	resource pools (thread-groups) for each of the clauses.  That is,
	doing it will not define a single thread-group which handles 
	"smtp/*.foo" and  "smtp/*.faa", like my   "smtp/*.{foo,faa}"  does.

	Now I am to step on a car, and drive across Finland to a radio-
	amateur summer convention :-)
