I believe my conversion was based on the non-pluralised version, so I
think I changed all occurences, but then foolishly somehow ended up
using the plural for the commit message, which translated into being the
entry I put in spelling.txt. Sorry ... :-S

I'll fix up, and re-validate any missing fixups after the rebase. I
think I originally did this at about v5.0, and I already picked up a
couple extra when I did the rebase, and now you've highlighted the
plural - I bet I missed some non-plural versions too ;-)

Will re-check and correct.

Thanks.
