Re: m-bib problem after upgrade

[Hans Hagen <pragma@wxs.nl>]

Hi,

Well, not knowing what the m-bib module is supposed to deliver, it took me 
a while to track down the problem, and surprise, the problem lays in an 
optimized system macro

\long\def\doifnotempty#1%
   {\def\!!stringa{#1}%
    \ifx\!!stringa\empty
      \expandafter\gobbleoneargument
    \else
      \expandafter\firstofoneargument
    \fi}

[if you look info syst-gen.tex you'll see that I forgot a %]

now, since only the math module and the bibliography module use this 
command, if went unnoticed when i did my tests -)

I could track it down because when i displayed onte of the lists a funny , 
was showing up (this is probably the reason why the empty test is needed):

     \xdef\allrefs{\ifx\allrefs\empty\else\allrefs,\fi\@@pbk}%

so, taco, maybe this is a better alternative for building the list ^^^

When this module is stable i will go over it (multilingual, hyperthings) 
because there are some things in there that should go to system modules but 
i happily await tacos signal -)

Hans
