I have to take issue with the "never find" -- in a Schott edition, with 
the copyright bearing the the company name of "B. Schott's Sohne, 
Mainz", of the Hindemith Trumpet Sonata, in the score it is spelled 
"Mäßig" but in the solo part it's spelled "Mässig."  I've seen the word 
most of the time engraved "Mässig."

So it might be wrong, but if German engravers do it you can't fault the 
rest of us for doing it too. ;-)
