[EMBOSS] Fuzznuc question: how to search complementary strand?

Hi,
Im trying fuzznuc to search for some patterns in a a genome.
When I search the forward strand:
fuzznuc -sequence mysqeq.gb -pattern 'TTC[GTC]-N(14,17)-TTC[GAT]'
-outfile myseq.fuzznuc -rformat2 genbank
Everything is ok.
...But when I search the complementary strand:
fuzznuc -sequence mysqeq.gb -pattern 'TTC[GTC]-N(14,17)-TTC[GAT]'
-outfile myseq-rev.fuzznuc -rformat2 genbank -complement
It appears to do it well, I mean that it searches for the pattern on
both strands, but when I take a closer look to the output file, this
is what I got:
===================
misc_feature 676..700
/note="*pat pattern1"
misc_feature 12325..12349
/note="*pat pattern1"
.
.
.
.
misc_feature complement(676..700)
/note="*pat pattern1"
misc_feature complement(12325..12349)
/note="*pat pattern1"
======================
It reports a pattern on complement that exists, in fact, but on the
forward strand not in complement.
Am I doing something wrong?
What options do I have to use in order to make fuzznuc to report the
occurrences of "pattern" on both: reverse and complementary strand?
Regards,
