parenthesis necessary for Plural-Forms

Dear gettext maintainers,

I'm using gettext 0.17 to internationalise a Perl project. I found that plural forms would only work when I set the plurals= expression into parentheses. Specifically,

"Plural-Forms: nplurals=3; plural=n==0 ? 0 : (n==1 ? 1 : 2);n"

would not work as expected, but

"Plural-Forms: nplurals=3; plural=(n==0 ? 0 : (n==1 ? 1 : 2));n"

did the job.

In case you can verify this behaviour, maybe one could update the manual to reflect it? At the moment, it seems to suggest that the first line should work. If you want, I can try to provide a patch for the manual within some days.

Best wishes,
Viktor.
