It has worked for me since June 2000:

Quote: "Support for hi-res primitives
Primitives in P\48 and future numeric subdirectories of P are also
supported. L3P skips any digit-only directory before attempting primitive
substitution, and thus treats e.g. 48\1-4cyli.dat exactly like the ordinary
1-4cyli.dat"
