My typo!

Also, requires extra braces:
	\def\vfrac#1#2{{{#1} \Uskewed / {#2}}}

I have to say, however, that the result (scriptsizing the numerator
and denominator), when used for symmetry operations, is not as nice as
	\def\vfrac#1#2{#1\!/\!#2}

	$\vfrac{4_1}{m}$


Nevertheless, the default definition:
	\let\vfrac\vulgarfraction
that is, \vulgarfraction, needs to be *fixed* to work within math mode
(as well as outside of math mode).
