Ok, here's a fix. the issue from the comments I added to Parser.jjt:

  I added the lexical states REFERENCE, REFMODIFIER, REFMOD2 to the 
SET_DIRECTIVE. With SET_DIRECTIVE only in the DEFAULT lexical state the 
following VTL fails "a$#set(b$ = 1)" because the Reference token uses 
LOOKAHEAD(2) combined with the fact that we explicity set the lex state to 
REFERENCE with the $ token, which means we would never evaulate the 
SET_DIRECTIVE token during the look ahead.  This general issue is disscussed 
here:

http://www.engr.mun.ca/~theo/JavaCC-FAQ/javacc-faq-ie.htm#tth_sEc3.12

The patch looks scarier then it really is because most of it is regenerated 
files.  The only explicit changes is the addition of the attached TestCase, and 
a change to src/parser/Parser.jjt
