The following bug:

is definitely there. I've tried it using floats, 2D, 3D, 4D and 5D vectors.
All except 2D-Vectors work fine, only 2D results in crash. This (as an
educated guess) probably has something to do with the storage of
2D-Vectors and how arrays save them.

My suggestion: If possible, just use 3D-Vectors and create a macro which
transforms those into 2D for lathe etc, like:

#macro Make_2D(Vector)
 <Vector.x,Vector.y>
#end

I'm still looking at other bugs...
