[Bioperl-l] Hierarchical location parsing

[Jason Stajich]

Is there a real example where these types of locations exist - why  
can't it be flattened without the nested joins?  At any rate - I don't  
really care to parse these if they never exist "in-nature".  If your  
bugfix soln works and doesn't slow things down we can use it I guess,  
although I prefer a regexp.  I don't really have time to patch or test  
in the near future so it will have to wait for someone to volunteer to  
get to it.
