[erg] Missing article in a sentence causes a problem in parsing?

Hi

I have noticed the following behaviour of the ERG in different variants of
a sentence:

call from a male to a female   ( parses)
call from man to a female      ( parses)

call from male to a female     ( *** does not parse)


Is this because of the adjectival nature of "male"? Do I need to make a new
lexical entry for "male"?

thanks
