I'm normally quick to dismiss complaints about split infinitives as people 
attempting to make an argument about style into an argument about correct 
usage.  But whether your objection is stylistic or prescriptive, "These 
conditions will make the future interpretation of the now polysemous term 
impossible to unambiguously determine in many circumstances." is pretty horrid.
