Hi Phil,

Just wanted to say I didn't test your file but I've seen this before
and can confirm the bug.  I think it might be a parser bug, where it's
looking for an irate variable if the current word is longer than 2
characters, but I could be wrong.  Either way, until it can get sorted
out, it can be a very tricky bug to find when coding up an instrument,
and thanks for noting it here!
