I have a fix now.  I just got done testing it.  I will post right
after this, and can apply as soon as I know there are no objections.

I tried that first, but had shift/reduce conflicts.  I noticed that
there were no *tests* without setup so far, and it's hard to imagine
when that would be sensible, so I didn't feel too bad requiring the
setup list for the test but leaving a single, optional, setup for
each connection.  If you can suggest how I could move to a list and
still keep it optional without the shift/reduce problems, I'd be
happy to do it.  I just didn't see any obvious way to do it.  But
then, I haven't done a lot in flex.
 
New version of this patch attached.  I think the only change is that
I modified the README file.
