Hoo, boy, that one's wrong!  Unfortunately, I have no idea what
the correct alternative would be.  There really isn't any way
to revise the table on entry at a time, is there?  It seems
to me that most revisions have come whole-scale, one language
at a time, as we've found experts in each of the languages.
