Try --> *Wharf ascd - Swallow "ascd" ascd &

If this doesn't work, then I'd assume it was either due to how ascd was
compiled or the devel kernel.  I seem to remember reading somewhere in the
docs that "nil" was not a valid entry anymore (something about the parsing
I belive).  And there is no such thing as MaxSwallowModule - unless
you've gotten a specific patch to do so, which would be nice BTW :)
