Ok.  That makes sense.

Unfortunately, keeping this behavior makes removal of SvRefBase from
SvParser non-trivial.  I'll put my work on hold for now.  I might come
back to give it another try later.

If someone is interested, here is my work-in-progress patch.

which were committed earlier then reverted due to a crasher these
changes caused.
