[Help-smalltalk] Re : Bug in the smalltalk-mode.el

The regexp in question is when attempting to match all the temp list that is:

(\s*\w+\s?)*

\s any space 
\w any alphabetic letter.

I guess that \w+\s? is boing to prevent prevent backtracking too often but I am 
not sure.
I just realize that it wont work when there is more than one space at the end 
of the temp list :S.

May be someone have  a better idea?
Regexp might not be the best solution.
