Thanks again for your work!
The updated version worked great with my home-made, Mobipocket Creator generated dictionary, but still seems to have problems with some Kindlegen compiled dictionaries.
For example, when I decompiled the DeDRMed version of the default monolingual Oxford Dictionary of English (B003WUYRGI_EBOK.azw) for testing purposes, the reverse-engineered .html file didn't contain a single <idx:infl> tag nor multiple <idx:orth> tags, and I know for sure that this dictionary contains inflections.
The script failed with the default monolingual French Kindle dictionary, (B005F12G6U_EBOK.azw). I've got the following error message:
Code:

I'll try to create a test case with compressed and uncompressed Mobipocket and KindleGen generated dictionaries for you tomorrow.
