// tell if two items are alike
proc/IsAlike(obj/O)
if(!O || type != O.type || !count || !O.count || \
contents.len || O.contents.len) return 0

if(vars[V] != O.vars[V])
if(V in builtin) continue
return 0

ok

obj
    var/count = 0    // 0 means not groupable; 1+ is groupable

    proc/Update()
        if(count)
            // change suffix
            suffix = (count>1) ? "[count]x" : null 
            // consider changing name to a plural here too

    // tell if two items are alike
    proc/IsAlike(obj/O)
        if(!O || type != O.type || !count || !O.count || \
            contents.len || O.contents.len) return 0
            for(var/V in vars)

The code looks good as-is. Are you sure it wasn't merely typed in incorrectly, or not inserted in your code with the correct indentation?
