Thanks for the information. I did not know this. I took a while before I found out that I had to run 'fmtutil' for my changes to take effect! I assume that changes in this cont-loc.tex take immediate effect.

Before changing the source, I tried to put the alternative routine in my document source but that did not work because these \@@ things are not known there. I'll move my hack to cont-loc.tex for the time being...

PS  Sorry for letting this internal sender address out onto the net. That 
    will have bounced your answer directly to me. Luckily I caught this 
    on the list. My reply-to-all template was not correct. I'll fix that.
    Thanks.
