[texhax] two bibtex problems, one involving babel[latin]

I am having two problems with bibtex, and hope someone can advise me.

1. I recently added a book reference to my bib file on a long  
project, and somehow bibtex refuses to see it.  I have created a test  
file and a bib file containing only this single entry.  Here they are:

No matter how often I tex or bibtex, it finds the citation undefined  
and bibtex can't find it in the database.  Here are the other  
auxilliary files for this:


2. I have several references to titles in foreign languages, and have  
used the \foreignlanguage command in these references.  The ones in  
german, french and italian create no problems, but the latin ones do:  
I get warnings that certain symbols are not valid in latin;  I  
presume these are symbols in the rest of the bib file.  Or perhaps  
this is another bug in the latin files for babel (there was an  
earlier one which was causing havoc with my texing until I replaced  
the file with a corrected update).
Here are the relevant source and bib files; again, I have isolated  
the problematic stuff in small test files:

The auxilliary files for these (after a number of runs through tex  
and bibtex) are



Any help with either problem would be appreciated.
