Well, I think this could definitely be called a bug :-(
(which is annoying, because I need this "feature" in my next IRTC
 entry)

I even tried to simulate a loop using #include file, but the
issue is the same...

I finally had to make a script that write every sentence into a file,
as in your example.  It works nicely, but lacks the elegance and
versatility it would have if I could use "ordinary" loops.
