Seems to me these have always been cleared out in the past because they are below minimum copper size, but then again, I usually close space my tracks -- this is a very sparse, somewhat silly design my daughter is doing, so no design rules are being pushed. (But hey, if you can get a 10 year old kid begging to design pcb's, it seems like a worthwhile use of time and money...)

Hmmmmm.... guess it was just me.  I have discovered the 'k' key -- I guess in the past when I've used 8/8 rules I've always jammed my tracks at minimum spacing in polygons and simply never noticed this behavior before.
