I would assume you mean “does not” detect all bonds.

The maximum number of bonds for a particular element is defined in 
data/elements.txt (i.e. OBElement::MaxBonds() 
http://openbabel.org/dev-api/classOpenBabel_1_1OBElement.shtml)

I’m not sure I’d “fix it” on a general basis, since OBMol::ConnectTheDots() is 
likely to recognize many spurious bonds. Instead, I’d probably set up some 
level of separate perception routine. For example, in PDB files, these are 
often residues and they have their own bond detection code.
