Okay, I had this problem, too. If I find a reliable and comprehensive 
source for how the AMS-style should look like, I'll try to implement it. 
But currently I am not able to make too much sense out of what I find in 
bibl-ams.tex. Maybe the reason for this is that I'm not much into 
(plain) tex. But anyhow, when I stumble over a specification I'll send 
it to the list.

Thank you,
Stefan.
