[gentoo-pms] "Command \t invalid in math mode" error in names.tex

[Ulrich Mueller]

For some reason (I suspect something is more strict in TeXLive 2009)
I'm getting the following error in names.tex:

LaTeX Warning: Command \t invalid in math mode on input line 189.
! Please use \mathaccent for accents in math mode.

The patch below fixes it for me, please review and commit.

Please ignore the patch, something seems to be wrong with \t in
general.

Can someone confirm the problem, or is it an issue of my setup?
