This won't help much, but I know the bug has existed for a long time.
When I last encountered it, it was around the time when Oleg was taking
over Eplain so I decided to not bother people with it -- in the end, for
the book I was working on, the final index did not trigger the bug and I
forgot about it.  I haven't seen it since, but I've had to do most of
document creation in HTML in recent years, so I haven't had much of a
chance to trip over it.

Cheers, Greg
