osis2mod -h lists the following versifications supported:

  -v <v11n>              specify a versification scheme to use (default is KJV)
                                 Note: The following are valid values for v11n:
                                        Catholic
                                        Catholic2
                                        German
                                        KJV
                                        KJVA
                                        Leningrad
                                        Luther
                                        MT
                                        NRSV
                                        NRSVA
                                        Synodal
                                        Vulg

However, this following page list others (such as LXX and GNT):
http://svn.crosswire.org/wiki/Alternate_Versification/System_Identification

I can see from this page that support for some of the versification
schemes appears to be a function of the development cycle with German,
Luther and Vulgate being added in 1.6.1 and Catholic and Catholic2
being added in 1.6.2:
http://svn.crosswire.org/wiki/Alternate_Versification#Supported_versification_systems

Cutting to the chase, my question is this, are versification schemes
such as LXX and GNT to be expected in subsequent development
iterations or are there otherways to employ them?  I'm specifically
interested in LXX as I've got valid OSIS for LXXE, but I'm constantly
banging into versification errors/warning when I create my module
ie.
INFO(V11N): Hos.7 is not in the NRSVA versification. Appending content
to Hos.6.11
INFO(V11N): Tob.8 is not in the NRSVA versification. Appending content
to Tob.7.16
INFO(V11N): Tob.11 is not in the KJVA versification. Appending content
to Tob.10.12
INFO(V11N): Sir.30.27 is not in the KJVA versification. Appending
content to Sir.30.25
ERROR(REF): Invalid osisID/annotateRef: 4Macc.18.1
etc.
