Can you be more specific as to what is still broken?  I'm fairly certain 
that what I fixed was the calculation of minimum distance between two 
rectangular pads.  It used to be the case that one pad was increased in 
size by "bloat" in both x and y and then checked to see if it overlapped 
the other pad.  That of course means you increased by sqrt(2)*bloat in 
the diagonal direction.  That is the aspect which was (or should have 
been) fixed.
