Hi Svenn,

A quick answer here - don't have the time to try out your code to figure out
what is going on.

Anyway, you might want to consider using the "static" analysis instead of "ic",
since this is the DC that preceeds transient etc.

And putting transient inside any conditional is a bad move. It needs to be
evaluated on every iteration, otherwise you loose the history information about
the previous state of a signal, and it will do odd things...
