The standardly expressed rule of English that an attributive noun is singular, unless no singular noun exists, is now false. Modern English admits both singular and plural attributive count nouns. The selection of the number of the attributive noun depends on the sense to be conveyed. This is a proof, among others, that constructions of the ([attributive noun] + noun) type are syntactic rather than morphological.
