I can't confirm the no-panner relation ATM, but it could very well
be related. The first time I noticed this problem was with four 
mono tracks routed to a 4-ch bus - a B-format recording I received
as four separate mono files. 

The version I'm using is CVS just after the zipper noise on sends
in 0.99.1 was solved, one or two days before 0.99.2. The fix for 
that one may have introduced the current bug. 

BTW, is there any way to trim a track *destructively* ? When
preparing the session I posted I tried every trick to shorten
the tracks it contained. Trying to be smart I split them after
a few seconds and destroyed the second part, but even that 
allowed the short pieces that remained to regrow like an
amoebe to the complete original... So I just removed all of
them.
