[Bro] conditional loading

[Dk Jack]

the directives don't seem to have file test operators. I tried to do the
following...

local c = "test -f filters.bro";
local cmd = Exec::Command($cmd=c);

when (local res = Exec::run(cmd))
{
  @if (res$exit_code == 0)
  {
    @load filters.bro;
  }
}


However, I am getting parsing errors...

---------------------------------------------------------------
referencing a local name in @if (res)
invalid expression in @if (res$exit_code == 0)
---------------------------------------------------------------
