I did not run it myself, I just checked the braces with vi... Anyways these 
files (under lib) are compiled into the distribution, so theses sort of problems 
should be reported at make time, I assume?

I would be curious to know wether the current ns-mobilenode.tcl shows the same 
"weirdness".

if there really is a brace problem, 2 braces won't solve, since I reported 3 
missing ones :)
