[Undiscussed Horrific Abuse, One Victim of Many]

present state:
i'm bumping into a bug in composer where one of the acceleration
algorithms tries to use the wrong symbol.
likely this worked fine in an older version, or has been fixed in the
development version.
i'm working on this because i realised that i had not yet enabled
composer's acceleration. it isn't enabled in the example i'm copying.
i haven't found one with language modeling, where it's enabled: but
their docs report extensively from tests running it with language
modeling.
i thought it would be quick and simple, as mosaicml describes it as
being. it may still be.
