This beats the hell out of me. I can't for the life figure out how this
would happen. I suspect the 'horribly wrong' theory... ;-)
However, can you double-check the results. I've tried your command line on
several of my favourite test sequences and always get the expected results.
-b 5000 is somewhat and sometimes a lot smaller than -b 8000.
