Yes, good catch. I've fixed this.

Another good one. Here's what is in the paper;

O11 carbonyl heteroatom
‘[O]=C([A#X])[A#X]’, ‘[O]=C([A#X])[a#X]’, ‘[O]=C([a#X])[a#X]’

The [A#X] notation is, I believe, a MOE extension to SMARTS that means
"Aliphatic heteroatom". Crippen.txt just has the first part of the
Wildman definition:
O11     [O]=C([A;!#1;!#6])[A;!#1;!#6]

I just modified it to;
O11     [O]=C([!#1;!#6])[!#1;!#6]

The changes will go into svn this morning and will be in the next
RDKit release. Here's the bug report:

Thanks for pointing this out!
