Hi,
When trying to load ace files using Bio::Assembly i get a number of errors
when calling the next assembly
ie 
$in=Bio::Assembly::IO->new(-file=>$file, -format=>'ace');
$assembly=$in->next_assembly; 
I get several of the following errors

Argument "" isn't numeric in numeric comparison (<=>) at
/loginhome/anunberg/bioperl-1.2/Bio/SeqFeature/Collection.pm line 436,
<GEN0> line 69.
At line 69 of my ace file is the quality clipping info eg (QA 81 705 177
842) which is in the new ace format and not present in the old ace file
format. 

The new ace format is now considered to be the default format for phrap.

I am using phrap version  0.990319

Thanks
Andy
