Summary:                    [patch] Contexts with a 'switch' statement in a 's'
extension adds MSet to the beginning of the Context
Description: 
Creating a simple context with a switch statement in the 's' extension will
always add two Mset commands to the beginning of the context.

Changing the 's' to '_.' only gives one Mset.

Yes, that's the proper behavior.  MSet is short for multiple-set, which is
a behavior that we wished to deprecate, that of setting multiple values at
once.  It had a side effect, though, that Steve Murphy liked for AEL:  if
people used quotes to encapsulate a single value, MSet would remove those
quotes automatically, as expected.  It is therefore used in AEL but nowhere
else.
