Section 4.6.2, 2nd paragraph

OLD: When a mechanism is evaluated, one of three things can happen:
it can match, it cannot match, or it can throw an exception.

NEW: When a mechanism is evaluated, one of three things can happen:
it can match, it can not match, or it can throw an exception.

I think the new sentence is still confusing (cannot vs. can not.)

How about this:

PROPOSED: When a mechanism is evaluated, one of three things
happens: it matches; it does not match; or it throws an exception.

This also has a nice syntactic echo with the immediately following
paragraph.
How about a more active statement:

When a mechanism is evaluated, one of three things happens:
it matches; it fails to match; or it throws an exception.
               ^^^^^^^^

Cheers,
