Hello,
I'm trying to hyphenate words with imbedded hyphens ala 'subsystem-module'.

A \showhyphens{subsystem modul subsystem-modul} gives
``sub-sy-stem mo-dul subsystem-modul'', i.e. no hyphenation in the third word.

I'm normally working with LaTeX, but here it makes no difference. Is this a bug 
or a feature? And if a bug, a configuration bug or a TeX bug (please send me
 $2^x$ dollars :-) ?


		so long

			Norbert
