Using Spectre Primitives and Modules of the same name

    It seems to me that if you have verilog modules of the same name as
    spectre built in primitives the NC verilog elaborater searchs the
    spectre primitives first. This means that you can't use any module
    names that have spectre built in primitives associated with them
    (resistor, capacitor)? Maybe i'm wrong, if so what is the priority for
    where the simulator looks to resolve module instantions: does it go to
    the spectre primitives that are built in and specifed by MODELPATH and
    then go the working library or vice versa?

    This does indeed seem to be the case. It tries primitives first. Also, models
    in MODELPATH get higher priority.

    This may well be documented somewhere - I just tried it quickly though
    to prove this.
