Description:
------------
5.4.3 using WAMP

To reproduce

The bug occurs only when you include the else: portion.

<?php

if (1):
if (1){}
else:
endif;

?>

result: 
syntax error: unexpected ':'






Test script:
---------------
<?php

//parse error
if (1):
if (1){}
else:
endif;


//works fine
if (1):
	if (1){}?><?
else:
endif;

?>




Expected result:
----------------
I expect to be able to use a traditional control structure syntax within the 
alternative syntax and have it parse correctly.

Actual result:
--------------
if else: is added after an if (): block that contains a traditional if statement 
w/o adding ?><? then it will be a parse error.
