Status screen max weight display uses wrong WEIGHTPERSTR?

This one should be easy
(jinx jinx)
The maximum weight you can carry displayed in the status screen is ALWAYS using a WEIGHTPERSTR modifier of 3.5, no matter the ini setting. This is purely cosmetic however:
When you set WEIGHTPERSTR to 3 for instance, you will get encumbered before the status screen tells you. The discrepancy between the values given by system messages (which seem to be correct) in the lower left of the screen and the maximum weight displayed in status gump, is exactly half STR in this case.
Somebody was using a constant where he shouldnt
edit: oh and by the by, the ini editor screws up the WEIGHTPERSTR, as in "takes away any commas" - turning a value of 3.5 into 35 but leaving 3 as it is. So its not just multiplying it. Keep that in mind if you're using the ini editor at all.
