Summary: Wrong Position Display

Initial Comment:
Environment: Ubuntu/EMC 8.04-- EMC2.3.3 -- AXIS -- Mesa 5I20 Card
What Happens: After homing the position displays read X0.0000, Y0.0000, and 
Z0.0000, even though there are offset values in the emc.var file for the G54 
(default) coordinate system. If a program is loaded and run, the part is 
machined correctly, but the position display is still wrong. It appears that 
the machine position is displayed, rather than the relative position as 
expected. I tried changing the displayed position via the AXIS menu from 
relative to machine and back with no change in the display. Once the program 
reaches the end, and an M2 is executed, the position display changes to the 
correct, relative values and remain that way. If the machine is powered up and 
homed, an M2 may be executed in MDI and the position display will immediately 
change from all zeros to the expected relative (G54) positions. As a workaround 
I tried putting [RS274NGC]RS274NGC_STARTUP_CODE = M2 in the .ini file, but this 
caused the startup of EMC2 to hang with no display or error message. This may 
be a separate bug, but I have included it here as it occurred as a result of 
the other problem.

Thanks,
Matt Shaver
