[AstroPy] Error in vo on Mac OS 10.6.8, Python 2.7

[Jean-Baptiste Marquette]

Dear vo gurus,

I use vo through ATpy on VOTables which are well read by TOPCAT. Thus I didn't find any violation of VO specifications.

The traceback is:

bs300.date processing ...

As I said this table is well loaded by TOPCAT, and was created by Emmanuel Bertin's SExtractor. It is 20 Mb large.
87041 (if it is a rank) is far beyond the index bound.
If necessary, I can provide the table in my ftp, together with my python script.
I checked that the issue remains the same on other tables of the same type.

Thanks for your help,
