[sv-ec] BNF for virtual interface does not include a modport

If section 20.8.2 is to believed, Section A.2.9
virtual_interface_declaration ::=
virtual [ interface ] interface_identifier list_of_virtual_interface_decl ;

should be changed to

virtual_interface_declaration ::=
virtual [ interface ] interface_identifier [. modport_identifier] list_of_virtual_interface_decl ; 

Also, the text says "However, this only works for interfaces with no modports." I do not agree. The existence of a modport does not change the behaviors of references to the interfaces without modports. Perhaps they meant something else.
