How amazing:-). a big public "than you" to you for reporting it in a useful form via latexbug.tex and [log in to unmask] Please can everyone else also do this and not send such queries to this list (or not just to this list); such cooperation will make our lives much pleasanter. > Maybe this bug can be corrected for the June release... No, for two reasons: -- although June has not finished yet, the June release has just happened (apologies for not yet formally announcing this); -- our policy is not to make any fixes that are not absolutely vital during the weeks coming up to a release when we are testing the code and updating the dosumentation. I do not think that I need to explain the reasons why this is essential to ensuring that the release is as stable as possible. chris
