[Oberon] Typo in documentation?

Hi
Chapter 16 describes the instruction set of the RISC5 processor.
I read the following description of the opcodes:
10 MUL a, b, n R.a := R.a x n
14 FML a, b, c R.a := R.a x R.c
When reading the Verilog code of RISC5.v I think there is a typo in chapter 16. Shouldn't the opcodes be defined as follows?
10 MUL a, b, n R.a := R.b x n
14 FML a, b, c R.a := R.b x R.c
Who will ask Niklaus Wirth?
br, Jörg
