actually, wouldn't that be

PostScript love eq {honk} {} ifelse

Or even simpler:

PostScript love eq {honk} if

Fortran:

       IF (LOVE (FORTRAN) .EQ. TRUE) CALL HONK()

MPW Shell scripting:

If "`Love 'MPW Shell'`" =~ /Yes/
   PlaySound Honk
End

Z-80 assembler (for the truely silly):

   LD    A,Z80
   CP    LOVE
   CALL  Z,HONK

Go for ARM assembler, instead. It's much easier, faster, and more 
powerful than Z80:

	LDRS R0, LoveARMflag
	BLNE Honk

LDRS: Load register, set flags on result
BLNE: Branch-link if Z flag not set.

[email-masked] - In order to prevent programmers from
being able to make mistakes one would need to prevent programmers
from being able to make programs.  Hence if your goal is to avoid
programming errors then there's no point in drafting up constricting
rules and regulations.  Just delete the compiler from the system.
It is a much faster and more complete means toward the same ends.
