[Cbc] Suboptimal solution as optimal?

Ryan,

Bug in Cbc.  My first try gave correct result, but I managed to get 
error.  For small problems, Cbc will do a simpler faster branch and 
bound on a portion of the tree.  This is returning infeasible - I will 
look into it.

If you add -depth -100 (which means only go into this simpler version at 
depth 100) then all looked fine.
