Odd glide safe behaviour

Not sure if it's a bug / quirk / other ....

On my last flight glide-safe appeared several times when I wasn't over water .... not so much as a garden pond, and at least 4 miles from the coast.  It behaved correctly when I was over water, but had additional spurious appearances. 

Not a major problem, just mentioning it.

Edit:  Thinking about it, I may have been above terrain that is below sea level (Lincolnshire) at the time if that's relevant.

It uses the terrain height to quickly determine whether you're over water or not. So terrain height of <= 0 would cause it to appear.
