I keep getting an odd problem that whenever I pan the map in the Y direction the vector layer items move accordingly.  However if I pan in the X direction, they stay in place.  Markers never move, staying in place where defined.  I saw a dev ticket regarding google maps problems, but it didn't describe the issue, is this same problem?

This is http://trac.openlayers.org/ticket/658, "Vector layer does not
work with Google". There is information in that ticket on how to check
out some code that doesn't suffer this problem.

http://openlayers.org/pipermail/users/2007-May/001577.html is probably
what your'e looking for, but the basic answer is 'You can't do that':
Instead, you draw a many-sided polygon.
