Thanks, this is not a bug but a missing feature. At the moment the mesher 
fully supports only line and polygon objects and there's some partial 
support for arcs. 
 
So don't expect copper arcs, padstack copper shapes or copper text objects 
to get properly meshed.
 
(We did this as a cheat: we said we will always have a copper polygon 
around the padstacks).
 
Anyway, I am adding this to the TODO, for after the tinyopenems effort.
 
Regards,
