The issue I had was that the first time I run amtapetype the result was a
little off.
Which was painful because it takes a few hours to run it.
yet, it might not be a bug - the reason I put it in the subject was that
people would notice it.

Thx,
gil

And what kind of bug have you found, as the subject seems to imply?
