I made some more changes to my FPGA configuration, so there is 
absolutely no possibility of index being seen without the 
counter zeroing, or the counter zeroing without index being 
seen.  Stuart Stevenson still has his homing problem, but he 
sent a halscope picture.  Clearly, index-enable goes to zero 
when there is no index signal.  When I run it here, I see 
index-enable go to zero, the very next servo cycle index goes 
true for one sample, and then back to zero.  In his case, 
index-enable goes back to zero with no index pulse within 1/4 
second!  I don't know how to diagnose it any further from here.
So, it is no surprise that the counter did not get zeroed.  I 
can't tell from his trace whether there is any motion during the
time index-enable is true, it looks like a flat line, but that 
may be due to his HOME_LATCH_VELOCITY being very low.  I notice 
he has HOME = 0.0 commented out.  That seems strange, I wonder 
what the default (if any) is?

(Oh, Stuart has a copy of my latest FPGA EPROM there.)
