I would like to test this behaviour. Do you have a simple test case?

I have committed a fix for this to trunk and proposed it for 6.0.x. The patch also includes various fixes around handling \${...}

Any testing you can do would be appreciated.

The final fix for this got caught up in a spec query (http://markmail.org/message/2rq3vkvx76vmhq75). This has been resolved and the fix has now been applied to 6.0.x. It will be in 6.0.19 onwards.
