Please forgive my resending this. The problem is acute since it  
concerns a journal that I publish.

As I understand it right now, the problem is that Thomas's latest  
Greek module and my installation of Latin Modern in MKII are not  
playing nicely together. (The module works well when I use other fonts).

Is there a better diagnosis of the problem or even  a fix for it? I  
would really hate to have to change the bodyfont for the journal at  
this point in the current volume.
