That makes sense.

Actually, my bad... I think I looked in the wrong .coord file to match the coordinates reported by suma. With the right .coord files, the differences match.
Thus it seems that it is indeed a simple translation problem.

I will send you and Ziad a email for off-list discussion shortly.
