We got this question from a customer, and I can't quite tell what the Spec
says about it. At the very least, this means we need to clean up Section
12, unless someone can point out to me where this is addressed in the Spec.

Thanks,

Here's the question:

module top;
reg a;
sub i1(.IN(a)); // OK in VXL/NCV, IEEE compliant
sub i2(.in(a)); // OK in VXL/NCV, not IEEE compliant (customer's view)
endmodule

module sub (.IN(in));
input in;
endmodule

<p>The module definition for sub is using explicit port naming in the port
list definition. The customer is saying they think the explicit port
connection shown in the i2 instance of module sub is not 1364 compliant. Is
it?
