Jim --
	My guess is that you are fooling yourself with indentation and
white space causing an ambiguity in syntax.

if($x == 1) then    # Your code
	set y=2
else
	if($y == 2) then
		echo "line 1"
	else
		echo "line 2"
	endif
	echo "shouldn't get here"
endif
-------------------------
if($x == 1) then     # Equivalent
	set y=2
else if($y == 2) then
	echo "line 1"
else
	echo "line 2"
endif
echo "shouldn't get here"
endif
