OK, I think you found a b..

I have used another mashup that is pretty much the same as Google's
example, and using the addresses in the format you entered them it
fails, but the returned status is 'OK'.

This example starts with two addresses as written in your page:
http://maps.forum.nu/temp/gm_directions_fails_V3.html

Click 'GO', look at the error console and you get:
----------------------------------------
Error: a is undefined
Source File: http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_us/mapfiles/api-3/0/32/main.js
Line: 18
----------------------------------------

Now, remove the spaces from the postal codes, so that
E1 1JY, LONDON
becomes
E11JY, LONDON
and it works.

So, as I mentioned in my previous post, the problem in your mashup was
in the format of the addresses, but the issue in the API is that
although the directions request fails, the returned status is 'OK'.

Looking at it with the debugger, the two addresses get geocoded, but
only to an 'Approximate' area based on the first 3 characters of the
postal code, and that may be the reason why the routing engine cannot
obtain directions.
However, the returned status should be an error, and not 'OK'.

Daniel, Pamela, Ben, do you need a formal entry in the issue tracker,
or can you take it from here?
