The two flow graphs of two hier blocks in the attached screen captures 
appear functionally identical to me. They were both generated and copied 
to ~/.grc_gnuradio / .  The block in null_hier.pdf works but the other 
does not (same main flow graph in both cases).  Are there any 
suggestions out there on what could cause this?
