fontinst/mathptm: bug in OMX.etx




While experimenting with a mathptm-like implementation using the
symbol fonts shipped with Mathematica 3.0, I've found a bug in the 
OMX encoding vector that produces the wrong kind of symbol for the
\rmoustache delimiter.  See the patch appended below for details.

This bug affects all mathpm/palatcm/etc. implementations that built
a virtual font replacement for cmex.  It is also possible that the
bug was inherited in the new experimental MX/MX1 encodings derived
from OMX.  

Cheers, Ulrik.

P.S. Who is now the official maintainer of "fontinst" or "finst"?
