"continue" means "fun" (read: surprising effects).

The route-map in question looks about this (simplified):

 ip community-list 20 permit 5539:100
 ip community-list 30 permit 5539:200

 route-map foo permit 10
   set community 1234:56
   continue
 route-map foo deny 20
   match community 20
 route-map foo permit 30
   match community 30
   set as-path prepend 5539

and I had a BGP prefix that I wanted to suppress from being announced
towards our upstream, so I tagged it with 5539:100 (which should suppress
it in the "deny 20" clause).

With the "continue" in there, instead of being tagged with community 
1234:56, and then dropped in "deny 20", it was just being announced.  As 
if there was no "continue" statement *at all*, so it just passed all
the prefixes in "permit 10".

People tell me "inbound works", didn't test that yet, though...
