Already fixed in EMBOSS 2.10.0.

But this does highlight a gap in the ACD validation - this expression is
only evaluated when needed (when -option is used). I will try adding
checks for all strings to generate warnings for unbalanced () and $ or @
without ( to acdvalid before the July 15th release.

I know this is really a wEMBOSS problem, but the message appeals to my
sense of humour!!! Can you send me an explanation of it when you have a
solution - it may appear in future EMBOSS talks :-)
