I don't need a quick fix since I can still use the old version to
compile that specific document - but it would be great if it would be
fixed in the current beta as well.

I also remember some other problems with tables being reported not so
long ago (usage of \AR, \MR, \FR, \LR, ... causing problems in
macros).

But thanks for the hint. I'll take a look at TXSruled, I never heard
about it before. (I hate the way tables are dealt with inside any
flavour of TeX anyway.)
