If I'm reading the stack trace correctly, BibleTime is calling
setPosition() which in turn calls many other things down the stack
until setBook() calls Normalize(). It does not appear that BibleTime
is invoking Normalize().

The issue appears to be arising, if Gary's analysis is correct, in the
handling of the special key value "[Testament Heading]". Perhaps the
presence or absence of such a foreward in the HunKar Bible and similar
are what is generating this problem in BibleTime?
