I found a bug:

Code:
#if somecondition()
~LButton::         
   Send {Backspace}
   return
#if
#if somecondition()
Backspace::
msgbox blah
return
#if
somecondition()
{
   return true
}


Clicking will not show that message box for me. I believe I saw it appear once, but in atleast >90% of all cases it doesn't show up.
Tested with latest ANSI version.

It's not a bug. #If, #IfWinActive, #IfWinExist, etc. hotkeys are typically implementing using the keyboard hook unless a global variant is defined and all defined variants are enabled. Hook hotkeys are not triggered by Send. For instance, LButton will not trigger the MsgBox:
Code:
GroupAdd, Everything
#IfWinActive ahk_group Everything
~LButton::Send {Backspace}
Backspace::msgbox blah
If you add this, it will:
Code:
#IfWinActive
~LButton::return
Backspace::return
