This is why it fails. My code did not initialize the global offsets
correctly, which had the consequence that the tracked global position
was off.

The move([0,0,0]) corrected the discrepancy and then the arc works.

The intended action was to start at [0,0,0] and end at [10,10,10] with
2.25 revolutions in the xy plane.

The uninitialized global offsets made the IJ calculations of the arc
incorrect.

As replied earlier, that should now have been fixed in my commit (and
pushed to the gitorious repo). You should be able to do a "git pull" and
recompile. Then the coordinates should match up correctly.
