GIB will happily double when it considers itself too strong to overcall, but simply has never been programmed to handle continuations.

You are being very tough on GIB. Sure 2 and 3 descriptions show 4 hearts, but 10 is a pretty strong singleton honor. As for not bidding either of West's 5 card suits, it's not really that big a deal. Sometimes GIB doesn't bid 8 card suits. This is just another minor SNAFU.
