    The following bug appeared in AutoCAD 2000,2002:
    Setting Rotation property in BlockRef object rotates about wrong axis when
    in paper space

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Set BlockRef = PaperSpace.InsertBlock
    2. Call
    BlockRef.Normal = {0,1,0},
    BlockRef.Rotation = 3.1415926535898
    3. See the block reference has rotated about Z axis of paper WCS instead of
    BlockRef.Normal

    The workaround is using ObjectARX AcDbBlockReference::setRotation().
    Be careful!
