can't generate trace files with svek_trace or -debugsvek

I have some very large auto generated layouts that get huge horizontally (unusable). I'm thinking this is because of a rank setting passed to graphviz. So I'm really interested in post processing the dot markup.

The example below is a much smaller one to make it easier to work with.

I tried the `!pragma svek_trace on` option as shown below:

@startuml
!pragma svek_trace on
skinparam state {
 FontName<<class_ortho>>    Impact
 BorderColor<<class_ortho>> #AA0000
 BorderColor Black
}
state "State 0" as State_0 {
  state "ORTHO : State 4" as State_4<<class_ortho>> {
    state "State 5" as State_5
    state "State 6" as State_6 {
      state "State 7" as State_7
      state "State 8" as State_8 {
        state "State 9" as State_9
        state "State 10" as State_10
      }
    }
  }
  state "ORTHO : State 1" as State_1<<class_ortho>> {
    state "State 2" as State_2
    state "State 3" as State_3
  }
}

then I run: java -jar plantuml.jar my_file.plantuml
 
and it outputs two files: "svek.dot" and "svek.svg" as well as "my_file.png"
 
"my_file.png" looks correct, but "svek.dot" is as follows:
digraph unix {
nodesep=0.486111;
ranksep=0.833333;
remincross=true;
searchsize=500;
sh0004 [shape=rect,style=rounded,label="",width=9.861111,height=3.786241,color="#000004"];
 
}
 
Which looks pretty much empty. 
 
Running: "java -jar plantuml.jar -debugsvek my_file.plantuml" generates a similar empty looking ".dot" file.
 
Am I doing something wrong?
 
Thanks for your help.
 
Adam
