	error writing table of symbols with semantic in cedet
Date: Thu, 03 Jun 2010 13:20:14 -0400

Hi Eric,

Could you take a look at this report about a symbol that Semantic can't
handle?  I just applied your semantic-lex-spp-table-write-slot-value
change that saves a nil instead of erroring on invalid values.
