Use of the \thanks{} construct inside of a \title{} gives rise to '</SUP>' being appended to the truncated title used as the text version of the "Up" or "Previous" navigation targets in subordinate nodes.  This problem went away when I removed \thanks{...} from the \title{}.

Since \thanks{} generates a footnote to the paper title, the </SUP> is evidently associated with the footnote superscript at the end of the title.   There seems to be an off-by-one error in the perl code which grabs the leading few words of the title when constructing navigation panels referring to the first page.

Below is an explicit example of the faulty HTML generated in the navigation panel.  (The title is "Use of Truncated Infinite ...".)
