I have in front of me, on the other monitor, a copper pour connected to net GND, and a piece of independent track connected to No_Net. The pour is over the track, no error markers showing. If I double-click on the polygon, hit OK, and click Yes to Rebuild, the same conditions remain. If I uncheck Pour Over Same Net, the track is cleared.
However, if I edit the track to any other net besides GND and No-Net, it is properly cleared. I would conclude that, to the polygon pour routine, No_Net is considered the same as the polygon net, but if the track net is changed back to No_Net after having been something else, it is still kept clear on rebuild. It would be interesting to examine the ASCII database. I suspect that this error might not persist through ASCII export/import, but I haven't tried it. The other possible bug is that a keepout was not respected. It could be argued however, that a keepout with an assigned net is a device meaning "Keep everything out except this net." I'd leave it. If you want keepouts to be unconditionally respected by polygon pour, don't give them (or leave them) any net.... While we are on the subject of keepouts, the keepout attribute should be globally editable.
