I think "Solder Mask" should be mapped to LayerNumRef 4.   
It defaults to LayerNumRef 9 which creates both top and bottom "Paste Mask" layers.  
Not good with SMT components.

	Sure.. not a problem. It'll be in 2013, until then.. simply save LayerNumRef 4 as a preference with the lower right key. Do you happen to have a list of the proper Bottom layers? i.e. Paste Mask Bottom, Solder Mask Bottom, etc. If so, i can put those mappings in also.
