QUESTION:

JP-8)

  5.1 Type declaration statements

  After NOTE 5.3 [49:8]:

  "If a length-selector (5.1.1.5) is a nonconstant expression, ..."

  Change `length-selector' to `char-selector', `char-len-selector' or
  `character-length'.

ANSWER:

Agreed, but we think that "char-len-param-value" would be a better
replacement text.

EDIT:

[49:9] Replace "<length-selector>" by "<char-len-param-value>".
