Comment (by anonymous):

 I see that now and I know the reason why: I made some special treatment
 for alternatives. Alas the special case handling does not apply for
 expect_directive<alternative>, or whatever else that might hold an
 alternative. I'm not sure if I should 'fix' this. But that special case
 becomes a precedent indeed ;-/

 In any case, allow me to repeat myself again: don't fight the attribute
 mechanism. Try to form your attributes as closely as possible to the rules
 and grammars that models it.
