iges import from pcdmis? - crash!

Hi, Thanks to everyone here for the great wealth of knowledge.

I am having trouble finding a way to import an iges(v5) from PCDMIS 2012 and 2013.

For some reason they have changed the entity type for a plane from 108 to 143 (bounded surface) and any attempt to import surfaces from the file will result in SW2013 crash.

I can import the files as curves in which case the type 143 entities appear as a single point.

Please advise any workaround or import setting I may have missed.

Ron
