Actually, this bug had the nice side-effect of identiying a few spots in
this huge project (journal) where the conversion of articles to context
was buggy (like that u-2011 example, they were all supposed to be
converted). Nice to get a _helpful_ bug for a change. OTOH that should be
fixed anyway...
The interesting thing is that using the default lm setup it does not show
up, but as soon as font features are activated it does.
Best wishes
