I've never had anyone actually show me a situation where PREFIX failed, and I've helped a lot of people install a lot of modules all over the world.

I pretty much depend on PREFIX to do the right thing for all of my modules, and I've never had a complaint about it, either from my public modules or the private things I deliver to clients.

Has anyone experienced a situation where PREFIX didn't do anything or did the wrong thing? What were the details of the set-up? Is the frequency of this on the order or neutrino interactions with other matter?
