Bug#446346: exim4-config: incorrect condition in new configuration files causing bounced email

Package: exim4-config
Version: 4.68-1
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss
After upgrading exim4-config to 4.68-1 this morning I'm getting a lot of
messages bounced, with the following in the paniclog:
2007-10-12 20:59:41 1IgIEv-0005de-Ep failed to expand condition "${if ${match_ip{$sender_host_address}{:@[]}}{1}{0}}" for real_local router: condition name expected, but found "${match_ip{$send"
This comes from the new conf.d/router/300_exim4-config_real_local:
COND_LOCAL_SUBMITTER = "\
${if {match_ip{$sender_host_address}{:@[]}}\
{1}{0}\
}"
I don't know in what way this is wrong but I've disabled the condition
for now.
I have "deliver real-hamish" at the end of my .forward which is
triggering this. I guess nobody else does this as nobody has reported it
until now.
Thanks
Hamish
