[sv-bc] import task example in 25.8

25.8 contains this example:

interface simple_bus #(AWIDTH = 8, DWIDTH = 8)
(input logic clk); // Define the interface

...

modport slave( input req, addr, mode, start, clk,
output gnt, rdy,
ref data,
import task slaveRead,
task slaveWrite);
// import into module that uses the modport

...

task slaveRead; // slaveRead method
...
endtask

...

task slaveWrite;
...
endtask
endinterface: simple_bus

The imports of slaveRead and slaveWrite in the slave modport contain the keyword task, but do not have parentheses.

The current BNF for method prototypes in modport declarations, requires parentheses, so this example appears to be illegal according to the letter of the LRM.

Mantis 3007 touches on this issue also.
