in mkii we obey lines because it gives better tracing etc etc given that 
we use external files; this will work:


    draw \sometxt{A very %
                 long string} ;


indeed mkiv is different but let's consider it an improvement; i don't 
want to waste time on mkii fixes that are not that important
