"Loyal Unto Death" uses wrong ability modifier for damage roll

This Malec-Keth Janissary L11 encounter power (Manual of the Planes), as initially published, erroneously used STR for both its attack and damage rolls. The November errata corrected it to use INT as a swordmage power should, but it has only been partially fixed in the character builder; while the power now does correctly use INT for the attack roll, the damage roll still uses STR, i.e. its attack is Intelligence vs. AC, but it deals 3[W] + Strength modifier damage.

(Incidentally, the compendium entry does not appear to have been fixed at all; according to it, the power continues to use STR for both rolls. EDIT: this assertion was, on my part, somewhat mistaken, as I've finally noticed – the compendium does include a revision that corrects the attack to "Intelligence vs. AC", but the wrong ability modifier still is used for the damage roll.)

As of the February 2010 char builder update, this power remains incorrect as outlined above, both in the CB and the compendium. (If there were a forum specifically for compendium errata I would submit this there as well, but I'm not aware of one.)
