Bug#440308: bibtex can't read exported db properly

[Harald Tlatlik]

Hi Michael,

after updating the situation has not changed. After bibtexing my 
exported database file I get for example from

******************************
@Article{amsden98,
        author = {Amsden, Brian},
        title = {{Solute Diffusion within Hydrogels. Mechanisms and 
Models}},
        journal = {{Macromolecules}},
        volume = {{31}},
        pages = {{8382-8395}},
        year = {{1998}},
        keywords = "Diffusion"
}

******************************
this entry in my bbl-file:

******************************
\bibitem{amsden98}
B.~Amsden.
\\\newblock {Solute Diffusion within Hydrogels. Mechanisms and 
Models}.
\\\newblock \emph{{Macromolecules}}, \textbf{{31}}, {8382 ({1998}).

******************************

But probably this is more an issue of bibtex? Because if I delete 
double braces like this:

******************************
@Article{amsden98,
        author = {Amsden, Brian},
        title = {{Solute Diffusion 
within Hydrogels. Mechanisms and 
Models}},
        journal = {{Macromolecules}},
        volume = {{31}},
        pages = {8382-8395},
        year = {{1998}},
        keywords = "Diffusion"
******************************

then everything is working like a charm. I'm not deep enough into 
bibtex at all to make a definite answer, but that sounds like a bug if 
"{...}" is translated to "{...}", but "{{...}}" is translated to 
"{..."

What do you think?

Thanks a lot,
Harald
