While experimenting with a mathptm-like implementation using the
symbol fonts shipped with Mathematica 3.0, I've found a bug in the
OMX encoding vector that produces the wrong kind of symbol for the
\rmoustache delimiter. See the patch appended below for details.
This bug affects all mathpm/palatcm/etc. implementations that built
a virtual font replacement for cmex. It is also possible that the
bug was inherited in the new experimental MX/MX1 encodings derived
from OMX.
Cheers, Ulrik.
P.S. Who is now the official maintainer of "fontinst" or "finst"?
