<p class="MsoNormal">We use perl map script to compile our map part files in to a single map file ( without includes) before we move them in to production.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We found a problem in this process. When we use “PERCENTAGES” in our map part files the complied map file contain the word “PERCENTATGES” instead of “PERCENTAGES” ( note the additional T).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We did a quick scan on the code base and found the following statement in “mapfile.c” which is causing this behaviour,<o:p></o:p></p>
