Two problems here.  One is user error.  The other is a serious program 
bug.

The user error is that you define the subckt with two connections, then 
you call it with only one.

The serious program bug is that it crashes on this instead of giving a 
proper error message.  It will be fixed.


Thanks for the bug report.  The error handling portion of the test suite 
is not as well developed as it should be.  Reports of improper error 
handling are very valuable.
