PWS produces incorrect result with large number of input tuples

See https://www.circuitlab.com/circuit/v8w2r4x4b6m8/pws-bug/

This circuit should produce a staircase voltage and current. However, it incorrectly produces one single big step instead.

The PWS function supplied to the current source accepts, without any error indication, more tuples than it apparently can successfully execute. The time simulation of a current source using PWS(....) is incorrect, without any error indication.
