[erlang-bugs] Misspelled word "seperator"

When using Erlide there is help that may pop up when hovering over
source items.
Hovering over a string:tokens/2 function call causes the following
to pop up:
+------------------------
| tokens(String, Seperators).
| Return a list of tokens seperated by characters in Seperators.
+-----------------------------------
The misspelled words (seperated etc) appear to come from the Erlang
source code, in this case lib/stdlib/src/string.erl.
Probably this cosmetic flaw can be seen in more places. A
case-insensitive search for the string 'seperat' in the source
tree yields these hits:
./lib/inets/src/inets_app/inets_regexp.erl
./lib/hipe/llvm/hipe_rtl_to_llvm.erl
./lib/parsetools/src/leex.erl
./lib/stdlib/src/edlin_expand.erl
./lib/stdlib/src/string.erl
./lib/stdlib/src/erl_lint.erl
./lib/stdlib/src/io_lib.erl
./lib/stdlib/src/edlin.erl
./lib/public_key/test/pkits_SUITE.erl
./lib/xmerl/src/xmerl_regexp.erl
