You did not say which version of the UCD files you were using. Old
versions are known to be very buggy.

Fixed in the main CVS now. Should show up in the anon CVS repository
soon.

Hm. Not sure who is responsible for this fault here.

Usually, the time base / discontinuity indicator this is just
sysUpTime, which is the default. (Some counters have their own time
base - but most people/tools seem do not care about these details
anyway ;-).
