just some info found debugging :

in namelist_read:

          name_matched = 1;
          nl = find_nml_node (saved_string);
          if (nl == NULL)
            internal_error ("Can not match a namelist variable");

saved string is equal to the previous data value as well as the variable, so it
will never match.

searching for num3
searching for 42num4
              ^^
              this is the value for num3

possible fix is to clear out saved_string before the variable name is parsed,
maybe here:

        case '\n':
        case '\t':
          break;
        case ',':
          free_saved ();
          next_name = 1;
          break;
                                                                                
my time is limited, so i may not get back to this for a few weeks.  hope it is
helpfull to someone.
