Hi Tom, 

Can you open an issue on GitHub and I will fix it. Andrew has given a good 
explanation. My view is the simple fix is we add the flag in (1), or I could 
write a better canonicalisation algorithm (2). I did recently present to inchi 
the “how” on inorganic stereochemistry (octahedral etc) perhaps I should 
practise what I preach so to speak.
