-dward’s old address

This erratum proposes changing “is not equal” to “is not match”. As far as I 
can tell would make the text less, not more, precise. I’m going to reject it. 
Submitter, if you still feel there is a problem, you can either open a new 
erratum expressing your point more clearly, or follow up to this thread to 
discuss.
