I was too hasty.  Should have had a look at the code first.

I think the problem comes from the fact that a normal Walker moves +1,+y 
pixel, where y is the height to be walked.  However, when in walking mode 
as a bridger the Pingu moves +4,+2 and so could by-pass any problems.

I'll probably briefly look into it tonight and should be able further 
investigate next week.

Thanks,
Gervase.
