16 Having a \figure \caption including a mathaccent character produces an
18 (eg. including $\hat{\lambda}$ in the caption), and unacceptable output of
19 the \listoffigures. This problem only occurs while using the babel package.
20 The choice of language does not seem to matter.
21 The problem only occurs with version 3.6 of babel. I have an older tex
22 system installed on my pc, using babel 3.5, which does have the problem.
