-------------------------------------

I've added a few more rules. I'll have to add a few more tests etc before I 
post a new patch.

{code}

    define main_suffix as (
        setlimit tomark p1 for ([substring])
        among(
            'a' 'arna' 'erna' 'heterna' 'orna' 'ad' 'e' 'ade' 'ande' 'arne'
            'are' 'aste' 'en' 'anden' 'aren' 'heten' 'ern' 'ar' 'er' 'heter'
            'or' 'as' 'arnas' 'ernas' 'ornas' 'es' 'ades' 'andes' 'ens' 'arens'
            'hetens' 'erns' 'at' 'andet' 'het' 'ast'
            'era' 'erar' 'erarna' 'erarnas' 
            // augmentation starts here
            'an' 'anen' 'anens' 'anare' 'aner' 'anerna' 'anernas'
            'ans' 'ansen' 'ansens' 'anser' 'ansera'  'anserar' 'anserna' 
'ansernas'

            'ikation'
            'ikat' 'ikatet' 'ikatets' 'ikaten' 'ikatens'
            // augmentation ends here
                (delete)

> Snowball stemmer for Swedish lacks support for '-an' and '-ans' related 
> suffix stripping, ending up with non compatible stems for example "klocka", 
> "klockor", "klockornas", "klockAN", "klockANS".  Complete list of new suffix 
> stripping rules:
> {pre}
>             'an' 'anen' 'anens' 'anare' 'aner' 'anerna' 'anernas'
>             'ans' 'ansen' 'ansens' 'anser' 'ansera'  'anserar' 'anserna' 
> 'ansernas'
>             'iera'
>                 (delete)
> {pre}
> The problem is all the exceptions (e.g. svans|svan, finans|fin, nyans|ny) and 
> this is an attempt at solving that problem. The rules and exceptions are 
> based on the [SAOL|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svenska_Akademiens_Ordlista] 
> entries suffixed with 'an' and 'ans'. There a few known problematic stemming 
> rules but seems to work quite a bit better than the current SwedishStemmer. 
> It would not be a bad idea to check all of SAOL entries in order to make sure 
> the integrity of the rules.
> My Snowball syntax skills are rather limited so I'm certain the code could be 
> optimized quite a bit.
> *The code is released under BSD and not ASL*. I've been posting a bit in the 
> Snowball forum and privatly to Martin Porter himself but never got any 
> response so now I post it here instead in hope for some momentum.
