Thanks for the report, I can confirm this bug, but it has been
introduced by a recent version of Emacs, I just tested with Emacs
23.3.1 and it works as expected.  I cannot remember which version of
Emacs I used when I developed the siunitx style file, probably 24.2 or
24.3.  I'll try to find the culprit.

Bye,
