It is quite normal that MLCad complaints. As explained here:
http://www.ldraw.org/Article14.html
the package with the unofficial files is updated every 3 minutes and includes
also held files. You'll therefore also get parts like this:
http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/2861.dat
which is an extraordinary part but has some problems.
RTFM! These are unofficial parts. They may be incomplete, or inaccurate, and it
is possible that when they are officially released they may be changed in ways
that could mess up any model you use them in. This is far more likely for Held
parts than Certified parts.
