Paul-
Yes, there was a bug introduced to Map and subsequently fixed Apr 17 2000 , see
http://opendx.watson.ibm.com/cgi-bin/dx/cvsweb/dx/src/exec/libdx/trisRI2D.c

There is no "4.1.1" mark in cvs and no "4.1.1" tarball, so I can't tell you if a
binary labelled 4.1.1 will have the bug or not.  Compare dates, perhaps.
Building fresh from our cvs would definitely address the problem.
