MAKECUBE has never assumed any specific number of detectors. So, bugs
notwithstanding, the change in the number of detectors should not make
a difference.
I'm currently going through the changes that have been made to
makecube since the lehuakona release to see which ones could possibly
have fixed this problem. I'll keep you informed.
