    I found the following in a vendor application note:

    "Please note that the example
    below only shows a semi-colon after the config and design
    statements per the BNF, which is how [product name]
    implemented configurations. At the time of this writing, it
    has since been discovered that the Verilog-2001 committee
    intended that all configuration statements, except the
    endconfig, should end with a semi-colon and therefore
    some EDA vendor implementation of configuration
    blocks might not be consistent."

    I then looked in Section 13 and it seems to be inconsistent in the examples as
    to whether the configuration statements end with semicolon.

    However, I have no memory, nor found no record, that
    "the Verilog-2001 committee
    intended that all configuration statements, except the
    endconfig, should end with a semi-colon".

    The closest I found was in a mail by Tom Fitzpatrick at
    http://boydtechinc.com/btf/archive/btf_1999/0462.html

    Does anyone have more information?

    Thanks,
    Shalom
