No, this wasn't the problem, since we are going to drop any implicit
rule that collides with an user defined one (however, this approach is
discussable, but nobody has put his comments on this yet and i think this
is important for backwards compatibility). I don't think we need ev_kind in
the
index at all, in my opinion implicit and user defined rules of the same
event
shouldn't live together (_RETURN rules are marked as implicit ones now, too)
