combostatus doesn't seem to be working as expected.

Lines in combo.cfg of the form:
  f.bar.com.conn = foo.bar.com.conn
work just fine.

Lines of the form:
  f.bar.com.conn = foo.bar.com.conn + baz.bar.com.conn
also seem to work fine.

But lines containing any constants seem to fail:
  f.bar.com.conn = foo.bar.co.connm + 1
leave footprints in the debug log like:

and things like:
  f.bar.com.conn = (foo.bar.com.conn + baz.bar.com.conn ) >= 1

It seems to assume everything must be a host.test name-pair doesn't seem 
able to parse the constants off the line. Yes, this is still under 
Solaris 10 on sparc.
