Index woes in WebWorks ePublisher from FM 7.2

I appreciate any guidance on this frustrating puzzle -
I am generating WW Help 5 from a 258pp, 21-chapter software manual done
in FrameMaker 7.2. I use pretty mundane indexing, with some help from
IXgen. There are some multiple entries in a single marker, a few
<$nopage> entries, but nothing truly cutting edge.
The FrameMaker manual index is fine, and the PDF versions are fine, but
the WW5 help:
A) ignores a number of normal index entries
B) has at least one instance of an index entry with three subentries
completely reproduced adjacent to the original (see below)
EXAMPLE
Index EntryA 15, 25, 119
Index EntryB 253
Index EntryC
Subentry1 75
Subentry2 113, 176
Subentry3 12
Index EntryC
Subentry1 75
Subentry2 113, 176
Subentry3 12
Index EntryD 135, 215
See how IndexEntryC is duplicated? Other entries with subentries are
fine.
I have not seen more than the one instance of this strange reproduction
issue, but I am not finished with the index yet, so there may be more.
My ship date is next Monday, so I am getting anxious. I appreciate any
insight!
