The attached document should clarify the issue some.

New text for 9.3.2.3 para 2 to:

    For the purpose of reporting results and scheduling delayed future
    events, the digital kernel rounds A2D event times such that error
    is limited to the smaller of half the precison base for the module whose
    port is being connected or the precision base of the connect module. For
    the examples below the timescale is 1ns/1ns, so the maximum scheduling
    error when swapping a digital module for it's analog counterpart
will be 0.5ns.
    A2D statements that do not include a scheduling delay are processed
    immediately in a new digital simulation cycle such that dependent
zero-delay
    non-blocking assigns are executed before control returns to the
    analog domain.

Regards,
Kev.
