Celestia 1.2.5beta2 bug: orbit misses object

[selden]

I realize this must be a really ancient bug since I didn't see it mentioned in a search of recent postings.

When orbit display is enabled, the orbit of the object being viewed often misses the object's image, sometimes by very large distances.

e.g.
Start Celestia
open the "solar system browser"
select Ceres, select goto
on the way to Ceres, one passes its orbit
when one has reached Ceres, the orbit has passed out of the field of view.

This bug is also present in v1.2.4
