[tex-k] bug report for makeindex

[Paulo Ney de Souza]

This is a bug report for 'makeindex' as requested on the man page.

Consider the two NLO files:

b.nlo:
\nomenclatureentry{AM@[{M}]\begingroup conjugate\nomeqref {0}|nompageref}{2}
\nomenclatureentry{AM@[{M}]\begingroup conjugate\nomeqref {0}|nompageref}{3}

c.nlo:
\nomenclatureentry{AM@[{M}]\begingroup conjugate\nomeqref {0}|nompageref}{2}
\nomenclatureentry{AM@[{M}]\begingroup conjugate\nomeqref {0}|nompageref}{4}

that differ only on the page numbers at the end of the lines: 3 and 4.

The first files (b.nlo) process by:

   makeindex b.nlo -s nomencl.ist -o b.nls

to produce b.nls:

\begin{thenomenclature}
\nomgroup{A}
  \item [{M}]\begingroup conjugate\nomeqref {0}\nompageref{2, 3}

\end{thenomenclature}

and c to produce c.nls:

\begin{thenomenclature}
\nomgroup{A}
  \item [{M}]\begingroup conjugate\nomeqref {0}\nompageref{2},
\nompageref{4}

\end{thenomenclature}

Observe the difference in the listing of the pages.

This is a problem because packages like "nomencl" expect the output format
in a
particular way.
