Niels,
Not sure how this happened but I totally missed the bug report when you filed
it.

I just checked that with a small program. Looks like we do indeed need \$nerr
(or something like it) now. My earlier with 'undef' was seemingly too clever
by half.
The odd thing is that I run beancounter every (business) day and I have not
been bitten. beancounter runs every day for me -- so I will downgrade the
severity to normal; I hope you do not mind.
I think I'll look into making a new beancounter bug fix release.
Thanks again for the report.
Dirk
