Huh.  I forgot that Robert had added the multi-category capability.  And,
I asked for it.

I chose to use the same technique that I'd used previously and check in
the current state of Robert's parsing, from the trunk, into the branch.
So, there are some energetic stubs in the code, but the code for parsing
categories is the same in both branches.

Thanks for noticing this.  I think this should be fixed now.  I had
erroneously eliminated a test for sources in scan2.
