The bug should be fixed with version 3.7. Well, this looks like the culprit, but according to my tex output I have: This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4) entering extended mode (./301f06-info-johnson.tex LaTeX2e <2003/12/01> Babel <v3.8d> and hyphenation patterns for american, ... Document Class: amsart 2004/08/06 v2.20 so maybe the babel bug did not get fixed with v3.8d, or came back in, or it is a latex bug instead. These were just updated by an upgrade of debian etch, but the bug has been with me for several upgrades. Thanks for the help; at least I know where to go. -- David
