>Description:
	define(`foo',defn(`divert')) makes a macro called foo
	but does not seem to invoke divert when called.

	Well, I realize this is a bit of a dark corner, but from 
	documentation it seems like it should work.
	
	The test case below works (i.e. produces one blank line of
	output)	with gnu m4
	
>How-To-Repeat:

run m4 on the following three line input:

define(`foo',defn(`divert'))
foo(-1)
this output should not appear


	
>Fix:
