I've always respected PCB polygons very much, but I didn't knew they
are _so_ mighty. I use them very cowardly, e.g. I usually avoid to put
a polygon over footprints with too many pads, like in sourceforge bug

Actually, you didn't identify PCB version: 1.99y is just any GIT point
after pcb-20081128 snapshot.
