The alignment of the pin and the wire has to be exact. Sometimes a
mismatch of metric and imperial grid sizes can cause this sort of thing.

Try zooming in as far as you can and see if there is a grid mismatch.
internally kicad works in imperial rather than metric.

I have normally been able to fix such errors my placing a junction at the
troublesome point, other people find that using imperial only helps.

I have also found things like duplicate lines in the lib file, can
cause confusion. As you connect to one entry and not the other.

Patrick has written a python script that does a number of checks on the
kicad created files, and it will pick up double entries, so it's worth
running things through kipy when you hit problems.
