When I say it's broken I mean that the compiled scripted operator that
gets applied to the curve of the spine no longer works. So instead on
the base of the curve staying attached to the hip bone, it simple moves
around with the hip controller, basically disconnecting it from the
hips. Like I said I've worked around the problem so it's not holding
anything up.
I've sent it off to AD, and we'll see what comes of that.

The tail have a very particular problem, on each tail objects there is
a hidden evolve op (the same that is on simulated ice trees),

doesn't move the mixer cache, so you have to copy and reconnect it by
hand.
Anyway, what do you mean by it's broken? It could be many things.

Don't use the pre-built rig stuff in the Character Menu. Too many
dependencies on naming and other stupid workflows to be reliable
in large scale production.
We got bit pretty hard by the tail operator a number of years ago
finding out it could not be ported to other characters once built.
I suspect other rig components are in the same boat.

Subject: Broken spine with new scene
Hi all,
I've rigged up a character using very traditional XSI tools, no
plug-ins, and I've discovered a very strange problem. If I launch
xsi and import the model of my character he works as expected.
However if a do a File>New_scene and then import the same model
file the spine on that imported model is broken. The spine in this
case literally being the spine of the character and created using
the Skeleton>Create Spine command in XSI. I have figured a work
around this but has anyone else experienced a similar problem? The
Rig was built in 2012 SAP but the problem is also present in 2013.
