I knew there was some handy debugging source... 
OK, shim2tws look like 

old version:

23125583151GBLFUT2008060.001DTBEURBUY1LMT114.010.0GTC01000010411

new version (shim-080326): 

23831529GBLFUT2008060.001SMARTEURBUY8LMT114.000.0GTC0000001031529GBLFUT2008060.001SMARTEURBUY8LMT114.000.0GTC01000010


apart from the fact that new version has double lenght it picks
appearently the wrong destination, namely 'SMART' instead of 'DTB'. 
After correcting corresponding default settings in 'Contract' table
(route 13 -> 87, formerly 18) table everything is fine. 


The corresponding LocalSet entries are identical, however - in fact
unchanged from the defaults, looking like

| 216 | FUT  | DTB      | EUR  | GBL       |  24 | SMART    |   

wrong destination route, wrong expiry - but appearently that doesn't
harm. So - can't  this table safely be ignored?

Thanks
