Blockly for Picaxe limitations?

I have been playing with Blockly for Picaxe for a while and have come across some weird behaviour when compiling and wondered whether there are some limitations as to the maximum number of blocks or embedded loops in a program.

An example is a program that I have (with a lot of nested loops) which compiled OK until I added a couple more blocks. Then, when I compiled it, the converted BASIC code put the main: section right at the bottom of the program and never gets to it as it runs a different subroutine first. If I manually cut and paste that section of code back up to the top of the program, it runs correctly.

I have looked in Picaxe Manual 5 but I don't see anything about maximum code size or nested loops, or number of subroutines.

Sound like issue 427 that was fixed in release 1.04 (sub procedures could sometimes output before the start)
