I once saw a board that was 2.5 mm, which would cause what you describe. As soon as I figured out what the problem was, in the trash it went.

OK, I see in the wiki that 0.1" is by definition 2.54mm.  I was taught it was 
2.54001, but that's not right, either.  But, if industry says that they're defined 
as the same, then I'm the one out of date.  =)  I wonder what was with that old 
prototype board.  I can't find it, so it must be in a landfill, but it was just 
exactly the wrong size to fit a chip.  You could get the first few pins in, but then 
the differences would be enough that no more would fit.
