Re: APG build fail

I don't think the quotes issue was the problem, it's been working with 
just the ampersand quoted for quite a while until it started breaking a 
few weeks ago - but I also don't think at the moment that your change is 
a problem either, so I'll leave it. Still think there is a problem 
loading Respec that's affecting the spec-generator. Michael
