Hi Dan,

Thanks for correcting the bug. I confirm it has gone away with the

I have fixed this error, and also corrected an unrelated issue with an entry for "with", and checked these changes in to the `trunk' version of the ERG.  (The `1004' version is now frozen/stable.)  So I would recommend that you try out the trunk version, at least to see if this problem has been resolved.
