Please retest the phoebe update.

Also, is this unique to the original phoebe kernel, or have you seen
this using other kernels?
Comment 2 Paul Sery 2003-01-22 03:10:31 UTC 
I hadn't encountered the problem in previous kernel versions. However, this
problem has apparently disappeared with beta #4 (Phoebe #2).
