The gb-irl.poly in svn was buggy. These files need to look like so:

<first line, random text>

then repeat the following as often as you want:

<polygon number>
   <co-ordinates>
   <co-ordinates>
   ...
<END>

after the last polygon,

<END>

so any valid polygon file must have two ENDs at the end, and this one
hadn't. Fixed now.

Bye
Frederik
