[antlr-interest] Unexpected behavior - Error?

[Philippe Frankson]

What if you replace 'source' like this:
source : (statement)* EOF

Hi!

Using the grammar below we experience unexpected behavior. The parser 
accepts the following input line:

<<<<<<< .mine

without throwing an error - which it should - according to the grammar. 
The grammar has been reduced to
a toy example reproducing the error. Any thoughts on that?
