Dragaera

Clybru or Clybur, one and the same? A question for Steve.

In researching character names for the Dramatis Personae page on the Lyorn 
Records Wiki, I've come across what I suspect may be a typo.

The name "Clybru" is used by Pel in TPG (page 162, paperback) to name the 
chief of Mathemeticians.

The name "Clybur" is used by Sethra Lavode in a conversation with Tazendra 
in /Paths of the Dead/ (page 195, paperback):

"My dear Dzurlord, you reason like Clybur himself, only--"

Since the chief of Mathemeticians will likely be a person who reasons 
rather well, and the fact that these two names are different only due to 
the transposition of a single letter, I theorize that they may be 
referring, in fact, to the same individual, and that one of these 
instances may simply be a typo.

My question, then, is twofold. Are these two references to the same 
individual, and, if so, which of these, if either, is the correct 
spelling?
