Hi David,

I see what you mean. I will look into this now. But as SAM-1221 is
contributed by UPV, I will contact them to see if they can provide a fix
sooner.

By the way, do you have any test case set because SAM-1221 can have many
different combinations. I want to be able to cover all of them.

Thanks,
Karen
