No, it does not. If you look more carefully, you will notice that in the
Csound 4 output, the 'if' and 'elseif' branches are always executed, while
the 'else' ones are never, regardless of the value of p4. Also, the report
was done with an old version of Csound 4. With the latest 4.23 sources from
CVS, its output is exactly identical to that of version 5.
In fact, the current if/then/else code in Csound 5 is synchronized with
your most recent changes to 4.23, and it is since then that the 'else'
branch is always executed at i-time. 'ithen' was also added by you,
apparently to work around this limitation.

No, they are i-rate conditionals. If you compile with -v, you should notice
that the temporary boolean variables are of type 'b' and not 'B' (but maybe
not in older versions).
