The file test_source.c (also attached) looks like this:

if ( some_condition ) {
  do_some_stuff ();
} else {
  do_some_other_stuff ();
}

The following commands

alitak$ 'emacs' -q test_source.c

M-x hs-minor-mode
M-x hs-hide-level

Results in a buffer display that looks like this:

if ( some_condition ) {...
  do_some_other_stuff ();
}

It would be better to hide both the if and the else blocks in this 
case.  If the file test_source.c is rewritten to look like this:

if ( some_condition ) {
  do_some_stuff ();
} else
{
  do_some_other_stuff ();
}

Then we get this behavior:

alitak$ 'emacs' -q test_source.c

M-x hs-minor-mode
M-x hs-hide-level

Show just 

if ( some_condition ) ...

in the buffer, but moving to the beginning of that line and doing 
M-x hs-show-block gives:

if ( some_condition )
{
  do_some_stuff ();
} else ...

In this case it would be better if both blocks were restored.
