What's the deal with these voids? I've never seen this before.

OK, I'll give you my thoughts.
I've never seen it either.
Nota clue, nothing, zilch.

I haven't seen those before either, but I can see potential firewall/fireblocking issues with them.

Didn't see your post yesterday, spent most of the day at various eye-doctors, ending up at a retinal specialist due to concerns I may have a detached retina (not a good thing), but the ending opinion is 'probably not, but if I see anything changing to call them immediately (they put emphasis on the 'immediately' part), and go back in 2 weeks if nothing further happens so they can check again.

Thanks, Jerry, and best of luck with the eye issues!

Yeah, Doc says;
Take two aspirins and see me when you more money.

Anyhow, wish you well.

Looks like regular block instead of L-corners.
