If that is the problem, cleaning and recoating would be the answer.
These folks know that, so I'll bet the problems are worse than that.

Hi Jim and others wondering about these rear elements,
The story I've seen printed is that the "entire" USA stock of these lenses was
stored in a damp warehouse in NY. And in these conditions the rear
elements succumbed to fungus. I'm surprised at that, I would have expected
them to be better sealed in the boxes etc.
I'd be interested to see a scan of a shot done with one of these affected
lenses, and a closeup of the affected elements to see the nature and extent
of the damage.
Cheers, Brian
