Please vote for one of the following. We shouldn't
leave the bnf the way it is since it doesn't reflect
the intent of the enhancement. This should be on the
issues list as it was tabled last week.

1) Strike named port connections from the ansi style
         port definitions (allowing jumpered ports in
         ansi style, just like K&R style).

2) Enhance bnf for named port connections to allow
         multiple for each port direction:
Was:
inout_declaration ::= inout [ port_type ] list_of_port_identifiers
         | inout . port_identifier ( [ port_expression ] )
Proposed:
inout_declaration ::= inout [ port_type ] list_of_port_identifiers
         | inout . port_identifier ( [ port_expression ] ) [ , .
port_identifier ( [ port_expression ] ) ]

Regards,
   Stefen
