The original AL39-01C does not have this issue. Only the PDF created by Robert Mabee has this problem. I'm going to resolve this ticket as "wont fix" because the Honeywell document doesn't have this issue. The PDF of the Honeywell document is called "AL39-01C_MULTICS_Processor_Manual_Nov85". The one with this issue was created, presumably from the original, but is missing all the original page numbers, and is entitled "AL39 - Multics Processor Manual - Robert Mabee". What is the provenance of that document -- the fact that it is different from the original calls into question its accuracy -- unless it has been made "more accurate" as well as having introduced errors, such as the one reported here.
