John,
There was a problem in DC with designs using set_min_capacitance, set_load
-min, or set_wire_load -min, or if a min_capacitance constraint existed in
the technology library. An internal variable was reset to an incorrect
value, which caused compile to use an optimistic delay cost. This problem
could result in some timing violations not being optimized. This problem has
been fixed in the 1998.02-1 release.
