Circular Roads

Who has the longest road in this scenario?
By my calculations the road segments by player are:
Yellow: 5
Blue: 6
Green: 8 => Longest Road
White: 6
Orange: 7
Red: 7
In this game the longest road was given to orange first and orange kept it, even though green should have obtained it by building the loop around the 9-Brick completing a circle of 6 roads plus the leg of 2 towards the orange settlement on 6-Wheat.
PS. I love the game! Thanks

If it happens again, please take a snap shot picture so I can review whats going on.
Was there another players house built on green's roads, if so, that would split greens roads and orange would remain the leader?
I've included a screenshot of the game I encountered the problem in as an attached file: screenshot-LongestRoadLoop.JPG
There was no settlement or cities blocking the longest road on Green. HOWEVER, there was a settlement at the end of Green's longest road. Would that have caused it to not count as a longest road? I don't think it should.
Patrick.
Let me clarify: I think Green should still have the longest road even though orange has a single settlement at the end.
I believe I have a code fix for this longest road bug.
What is the best way to upload the patch?
Thx
