I just ran into this in a program that uses subroutines, and shifts to a 
G55 work offset in the subroutine.
I put the program here :
http://pastebin.com/embed_js.php?i=QyjpZUD9
if anyone wants to try it out.  I tried to restart on line # 41, to skip 
over the first few pockets that were already done, and was amazed to see 
it skipped over the whole batch of 24 G01 moves and subroutine calls, 
and start to do the next pocket that wasn't in a subroutine.

It didn't mess anything up, but was WAY different than the expected 
behavior.  I ran this by the developer's list, and they basically said 
don't use "run from line".
