I ran into this funny effect with Magic's design rule checker, which just
shows that we should leave techfile writing to the experts (aka Jeff :-)

Anyway, this is not a bug -- Just an invisible interaction of the space
tiles.  To duplicate this effect, you need the two files that I have
attached to this e-mail: funny.tech27 and funny.mag (note: these files
were created under Magic 6.5).

Run 'magic -T funny funny', and look at the three groups of tiles.  Note
how the middle group shows a design rule violation, and the others don't,
and the only difference is the position of an (apparently) unrelated tile.

You can see the space tiles by typing the command ':*watch plane'.
