Ben Shaw located the folowing bug:

"...I'd been meaning to convert to use RGB color
definitions (vs. the names) anyway, so decided to bite
that one off. Now I'm coming up with some very strange
results. The RGB colors that I get on screen in the
layouts do not match the definitions. I'm attaching an
Excel sheet with two simple .son's and a comparison
table that shows the actual vs. intended RGB values I'm
getting.

Basically, the node in the center should be white with
a black border and label, and then each spoke on the
star should have identical node, label and arc colors.
In the RGB actual, you can see the label and border
colors (which are still named) are correct, but the
node and arc colors are way off. .. and off in a
strange way: black and green are ok and there's never
any blue, but otherwise the pattern does not jump out.
(Though I'm sure it's there and would make a good
little puzzle.)

Can you figure this out?

Best,

    I've located the bug (it was reading the red value as blue)
    and fixed it in the cvs version, will be included in next
    release. Thanks for pointing this out!
