[antlr-interest] Ambiguity caused by recursion (I think)

Hi,
I have a grammar that calls a rule from two different "levels". This leads
to an ambiguity being reported from the two different calls to the rule.
Oddly, the ambiguity points to the same place, so I'm not sure why its
"ambiguous". The pertinent parts of the grammar are shown below and I've
attached a screen grab of the syntax diagram from AntlrWorks.
start_rule
: clif_file
;
clif_file
: cltext+
;
cltext
: (OPEN CL_MODULE) => module -> ^(CLTEXT module)
| text -> ^(CLTEXT text)
;
module
: OPEN CL_MODULE interpretablename exclusion_set? cltext CLOSE -> ^(MODULE
^(MODULE_IDENTIFIER interpretablename) exclusion_set? cltext)
;
text
: phrase+ -> ^(TEXT phrase+)
;
phrase
: (OPEN CL_MODULE) => module -> ^(PHRASE module)
| (OPEN CL_IMPORTS) => importation -> ^(PHRASE importation)
| (OPEN CL_COMMENT) => commented_text -> ^(PHRASE commented_text)
| sentence -> ^(PHRASE sentence)
;
...
Thanks,
Cameron.
