Hi.  ACT was getting confused by the "5" at the start of the
"5MCconcat".  The quick fix is to remove the 5 or to put a letter in
front of it.

I've fixed the bug in the development version.  The development release
is here for UNIX, GNU/Linux and Macs:
  
ftp://localftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/pathogens/software/act/builds/act_compiled_latest.tar.gz
And here for Windows:
  ftp://localftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/pathogens/software/act/builds/act_compiled_latest.jar

Artemis had the same bug and should be fixed too.

Kim.
