gEDA-user: strange happenings in PCB

[Dave McGuire <mcguire@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

   I'm noticing some odd (and decidedly antisocial) behavior in the  
20070208 snapshot of PCB.

   I have two physically adjacent 0805-package resistors for which  
pin 1 is to be connected together.  When I start a trace from pin 1  
of the first resistor, it won't let me bring it anywhere near pin 1  
of the second resistor.  I've verified that "pin 1" is where I think  
it is, and that the netlist contains a net which links those two pads  
together.  Further, the rat's nest does show that a connection  
between those two pads is required.  This behavior occurs all over  
the board with different components.

   The netlist and PCB file were generated by gschem2pcb, by the  
way...the 20070526 snapshot.

   This behavior is most confusing.  Under what conditions should PCB  
prevent the user from connecting a trace to a pad?  Can anyone shed  
some light on this for me?

            Thanks,
            -Dave
