IDL Problem Code 35 with alias after-continuation

Bug Alert

This is not a syntax error, but it helps catch accidental bugs.

If you have a line continuation, and something besides a comment afterwards, this gets reported:

a = $ wrong
  ; ^^^^^^^ problem
  42

To correct, remove the code

a = $
  42

Technically anything after the line continuation is treated as a comment and ignored, but even IDL experts can accidentally introduce bugs this way by "commenting" out real code.
