Why does skEllipticalArc throw NO_ERROR?

I had a lot more complex script, but I eventually reduced it to the above, which fails despite input that passes the pre-conditions, and appears to be pretty much exactly what you get when you use the sample values from the documentation.

This is being fixed in an upcoming release.

I believe the way to currently get it to work is to make the major axis 1 meter long (i.e. vector(1, 0) * meter)

ok. sometimes i feel bad asking and then finding out i was doing something stupid.  But in this case, glad i asked! I'd never have figured that one out!
