Yep, I saw your commits (revs. 1.16, 1.17, 1.19, and 1.20).  I can  
check code prior to that to see if it changes anything for better or  
worse or gets rid of the bug (prob. later today or tomorrow), though  
I can't see why your revisions would make it worse.  If anything  
they're now more accurate.

Thiago can also try; just pull up a revision prior to the ones listed  
above and see if it helps:

Search/SearchUtils.pm?cvsroot=bioperl

Jason had previously indicted problems with tiling (i.e. similar  
exceptions were thrown) prior to your commits so I don't think your  
changes are related, but one never knows.
