Incorrect behavior of the rule

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I have test.lexc and test.foma files:

$ cat test.lexc
Multichar_Symbols
    +A +M +F
LEXICON Root
almizcler AdjGenderO;
LEXICON AdjGenderO
o+A+M:o    #;
o+A+F:a    #;

$ cat test.foma
read lexc test.lexc
define Lexicon; 
define AO    a | á | o;
define CtoZC c -> zc || _ "^E" AO;
regex Lexicon .o.
      CtoZC   ;

So, I've defined two relations:
almizclero+A+M <--> almizclero
almizclero+A+F <--> almizclera
Rule CtoZC should not have an impact to this relations.

So, when I do next steps...
$ foma -l test.foma
....
foma[1]: words
almizclero:a+A:0+F:0
almizclero+A:0+M:0
foma[1]: apply down
apply down> almizclero+A+F
???

It is strange and looks like incorrect behavior.
But when I comment out line with CtoZC rule and change main regex simply to 
"regex Lexicon;", it's OK:
$ foma -l test.foma
....
foma[1]: words
almizclero:a+A:0+F:0
almizclero+A:0+M:0
foma[1]: apply down
apply down> almizclero+A+F
almizclera

Foma version: foma 0.9.16alpha
System version: Debian wheezy (testing), Linux 3.5 x86_64

I am also a user, not the author. I try to help you. I modified your samples 
similar to the example, and then it seems to work:
foma[1]: lower-words
almizclera
almizclero
foma[1]: up
apply up> almizclera
almizcler+A+F
apply up>

The other way around:
apply up> 
foma[1]: down
apply down> almizcler+A+F
almizclera
apply down> almizcler+A+M
almizclero
apply down>

Yes, it works!

There were problem with this rule: define CtoZC c -> zc || _ "^E" AO
Foma interprets zc as a multichar symbol. It doesn't change transducer, but 
changes interpretation of input.

So, this issue is invalid and must be closed.
