Reading the post that you're quoting, I'm not getting a clear enough sense of what you were doing to be able to replicate it. I've tried some variants of accessing the $fcast matrix, but while I can provoke an error by trying to read a row that's not there, the message "index <whatever> out of bounds" is always showing the row number that I requested (which is what it's supposed to show).
