William: In my testing a polygon layer is definitely starting at position CC. Any chance you're using an annotation layer here? I have found an issue if that's the case. The decision to using one set of positions vs another is made based on the layer type NOT the geometry type. So annotation layers are treated as point layers regardless of the source geometry. As the code sits now that information is lost. Wasn't an issue previously since we didn't vary things. I'll file a bug on this issue.
Let me know if this isn't the case for you. One work around is to ditch annotation layers for polygons. They really aren't necessary with the addition of the label priority support in 5.0.
