ENGLISH TO PHONEME FIXES
Here are some bug fixes for ENGLISH.C (the English to Phoneme
rules). Mostly the order of "^" (one consonant) and ":" (zero
or more consonants) have to be reversed because they are parsed
from right to left (because the sequence "^:" only appears in
the left context part). One rule (for "U") got garbled and
the letter "H" had been left out of the special case for
"WHERE".
My thanks to Larry R. Custead (U. of Saskatchewan) for pointing
these problems out.
