Yeah, that's a bug.  That's going to happen anywhere in the main
gismu or cmavo lists that there were places with "x" followed by a
number less than 6.  This is almost always place structure data, b= ut
sometimes not.  We can really only fix them as we find them.

This problem probably only occurs in the few gismu for metric prefixes.=  Maybe a mex or two.  Anywhere where explicit multiplication occ= urs in the definition of the gismu.
