Dirk,

We've had the same issue some time ago.
Connections between different CPs. Also fixed it relaying the connection
to a different parameter, checkpointing en switching the connection to the
original parameter.
With us it did seem to happen only the connections with a CALC as the source.

Regards,
Sander
