strange behavior with apa and apa-fr bibliographic styles

strange behavior with apa and apa-fr bibliographic styles

Hello,

I have noticed that, for a reason I don't understand, dots after dates in
the bibliography are not placed in the same manner. For example, I get
(copy-paste from pdf) :
Morales, I. (1997) . The mexican crisis and the weakness of the NAFTA
consensus. Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science,
550 :130-152.
Morales, I.(1999). NAFTA : The governance of economic openness. Annals of
the American Academy of Political and Social Science, 565 :35-65.
Robey, J. S. (1999) . Civil society and NAFTA : Initial results. Annals of
the
American Academy of Political and Social Science, 565 :113-125.
Totman, C. (1980) . From Sakoku to Kaikoku. The Transformation of Forei-
gn-Policy Attitudes, 1853-1868. Monumenta Nipponica, 35(1) :1-19.

So for the first entry, the point after (1997) is placed after a space,
whereas it is not the case for the second entry (there is also no space
between I. and (1999)). In some cases (when I add more entries), I even
have the point before the parenthesis, though the bib file might be right
(or in any cases, since the field are completed in the same manner, I
didn't expected different behaviors in the result since it is automatized
and all fields are articles).

Here is the bib file :

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
@article{conrad1980transformation,
author = "Conrad Totman",
title = "From {S}akoku to {K}aikoku. {T}he {T}ransformation of
{F}oreign-{P}olicy
{A}ttitudes,
1853-1868",
journal = "Monumenta Nipponica",
year = 1980,
volume = 35,
number = 1,
pages = "1-19",
publisher = "Sophia University",
url = "http://www.jstor.org/stable/2384397",
}

@article{robey1999civil,
author = "John S. Robey",
title = "Civil Society and {NAFTA}: Initial Results",
journal = "Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science",
publisher = "Sage Publications, Inc.",
year = 1999,
month = "September",
volume = 565,
pages = "113-125",
url = "http://www.jstor.org/stable/1049540"
}


@article{morales1999governance,
author = "Isidro Morales",
title = "{NAFTA}: The Governance of Economic Openness",
journal = "Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science",
publisher = "Sage Publications, Inc.",
year = 1999,
month = "September",
volume = 565,
pages = "35-65",
url = "http://www.jstor.org/stable/1049536"
}

@article{morales1999mexican,
author = "Isidro Morales",
title = "The Mexican Crisis and the Weakness of the {NAFTA} Consensus",
journal = "Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science",
publisher = "Sage Publications, Inc.",
year = 1997,
month = "March",
volume = 550,
pages = "130-152",
url = "http://www.jstor.org/stable/1047712"
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

And here is what I have for bibliography setup :

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\setupbibtex[database=biblio,sort=author]
\setuppublications[alternative=apa-fr,sorttype=bbl,refcommand=authoryear]
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Thanks for your help !

Cheers,
Alexandre Krispin
