No problem! It is lucky (for us) that you spotted it so soon after the bug was introduced. It was a nasty unobvious sort of bug, and to be honest, I'm still not 100% sure what expected API rules of calling the affected function are. It appears that it is doing some clean-up for an operation it does not directly initiate. (For something done before the function was called). The patch in question had the side-effect of causing the function to exit early when no work was to be done (where the function did not have to add any rats to process). It seems that the clean-up it skipped by doing so was actually necessary to flush out connections from the current net, before moving onto the next net in the netlist. -- Peter Clifton Electrical Engineering Division, Engineering Department, University of Cambridge, 9, JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge CB3 0FA Tel: +44 (0)7729 980173 - (No signal in the lab!)
