I agree this thread hasn't been particularly fruitful. Let's start over:

Can we try to figure out why ELSIF isn't working on your platform?

It really is a much easier paradigm to work with when you have large
multi-page nested IF ELSE statements to deal with .. it's a down right
pain to keep track of where you are in the logic without ELSIF
sometimes. Plus, it would be difficult to expect every Koha programmer
to know not to use it, and it's one more thing a QA manager would have
to check for before approving a patch.

Those are the main reasons I'd like to preserve ELSIF if at all possible.

So ... is the problem on OSX unresolvable?

Cheers,
