hyphenating "rendszervaltozas"

[Zuzana Nagy]

If the word needs to be broken up for typesetting reasons - then I vote
for rendszer-valtozas. Looked at a Hungarian book at hand, it seems that
there's a trend to avoid breaking up words, or, if necessary keep the
component words whole. 2 cents worth.
