I didn't look at your file, but I did file a bug against PCB some time
ago about the DRC's shrink test misunderstanding cases where two pins
or pads overlap.  I was hanging power/gnd vias on the edge of SMT cap
pads and PCB would think they didn't connect well enough unless I added
a trace.  Even if the trace was much skinnier than the actual "neck"
where the parts overlap.
