Katar not getting Swashbuckler bonus

Description of Bug Experienced:
(please include information of what you did, that lead up to the bug, what you expected to happen there, and what actually happened, then move on to describe below:)
When using katars as weapons, Swashbucklers do not get their int-modifier to damage.

Steps to reproduce the Bug:
* Be a Spellsword/Swashbuckler 25/5
* Equip katars as dualwield

Expected Result:
Get +5 damage from int (28 intelligence capped at 5 SB levels)

Actual Result:
Get only the normal str bonus damage (+2/+1 here from 14 strength)

Screenshot(s)

Additional Information/Notes
I've tried only putting it in the main hand with the same result - no bonus.

If you have an item with INT on it, have you tried unequipping then reequipping it?

In my experience with Swashbuckler, sometimes Insightful Strike would just not register properly until I did that.

I've just tried that - same result. It works fine with the kukris that I normally use - my guess is that they (katars) weren't added to the list of applicable Swashbuckler weapons.

That sounds pretty likely to me! Thanks for checking.
