	Comments:	Yes, I've since found some refs having 幇間 read "たいこもち: Most have it as ほうかん. I think it's better to have たいこもち in the 幇間 entry.

	Comments:	Daijs has たいこもち for 幇間 but I imagine it's almost always read ほうかん so splitting is probably a good idea. Should we keep 幇間 here or not?

	Comments:	I can see no evidence that 幇間 can be read たいこもち. I think it was a mistaken merge many years ago. I'm proposing the entry be split.
