Problem Title:
M1.4 CPLD - Fitter report & timing simulation (F1.4) gives incorrect equations.
Problem Description:
1. Customer design is a top-level ABEL file for F1.4 (XC9572-7PC84). Timing simulation & fitter repo
rt give wrong results. Functional simualtion works correctly. In the ABEL code, the equation & signa
ls of concern is "ACK=ACKWR # (NB_RD_ACK)(RDCEN)"
In the fitter report under the equations section, ACK has a completely different equation.
2. In the ABEL code, ACKN=!ACK (sounds simple enough). But in the fitter report, ACKN=ACKN_BUFR
