More bad news on upward compatibility... As I said a couple of days ago,
if we want to be upwardly compatible with user input such as:
\[
{\sf \Omega} = {\sf fix\;I}
\]
then we have to allow five ligature slots in MC. In fact, the
situation's worse than that. If we want to be upwardly compatible with
user input such as:
\[
f : {\bf\Lambda}_0 \rightarrow {\bf B\ddots ohm}
\]
then the nine variable math accents also need to be in MC. Hmm... MC's
looking pretty crowded isn't it...
