Adding comment inside 'switch' statement triggers syntax error

[0liv1er]

Here below are some code examples which execute without any problem with GNU awk but that trigger warnings or errors when adding comment in an awk switch statement (using nvim and awk-language-server plugin).

BEGIN {
        str="hello world"
        switch(str) {
                # This comment triggers a warning: Syntax error: missing }
        }
} # and a syntax error here also

BEGIN {
        str="hello world"
        switch(str) {
                case "hello":
                case "world":
                        break # This comment triggers a syntax error
        }
}

BEGIN {
        str="hello world"
        switch(str) {
                case "hello":
                default: # This comment triggers a warning: Syntax error: Missing identifier
        }
}

I can replicate. It's a bug in parser.

This is fixed in 0.6.1.
