The ( was a curtailed copy. 

I'd considered briefly $:'s context prior to thinking it shouldn't change in 
either case, thinking it extended to the the parentheses around the gerund, 
conjunction and verb. I didn't know the details of self-recurance's scope. 
Using either of 3 :'... y' and {{...y}} fixes this.

Thank you; sorry for the false alarm.
