It generally means that something is corrupted - quite likely something has done
a bit of scribbling on some memory it shouldn't, and this is leading to the
SKILL Garbage Collection getting messed up. Almost certainly it's not SKILL's
fault, but another part of the application before this.

Is it repeatable? You should contact customer support about this, but you'll
need to send a testcase which reproduces it (it's not a generic, well known
problem). Ah, I see you have contacted customer support already.

This problem is still manifesting itself in the latest version of Cadence
(5.1.41 USR 5). Did you ever find out what was causing this ? I tried to
file a Cadence Support request for this and they were unable to recreate
it. Unfortunately the problem is not reproducible in a standalone test
case - it seems to have something to do with network files. Interested to
hear what others have to say on this.
