(define (postlex_stop_deletion utt)
"(postlex_stop_deletion utt)

Delete any stop or affricative (phone which has a closure) 
immediately followed by another stop or affricative.

Also save the identity of the deleted phone for the 
context cost functions.  Consider:

backtrack /b a k t r a k/ -> /b a t r a k/
(actually Jenny reduces : /b a k_cl k t_cl t r a k/ -> /b a k_cl t r a k/)
If we then look for a diphone /a t/ we want to favour
candidates coming from the same context i.e. which 
are actually a reduced /a k t/.  In the data base, 
the 1st /a/ gets the feature right_context=k and the 
/t/ gets the fearture left_context=k.
