[tex-eplain] Yet another indexing bug?

[john@wexfordpress.net]

The eplain manual describes statements of the form:

\idxmarked\cs{foo}

Such statements work. The manual also describes multiple indexes, based on the first letter of the command. So

\jdxmarked\cs{foo}
 
should also work, assuming that an index with the prefix "j" had been specified earlier. Unfortunately it does not. However the silent variant

\sjdxmarked\cs{foo} 

does work. 

This is another instance where the silent variants work and the non-silent equivalents don't.  I can 't fathom why this should be.
