[R-sig-Geo] problems with dnearneigh of spdep

Hello,
I have some strange results with the dnearneigh function.
I would like to have all points of grid linked. I do something like that:

 > xy=expand.grid(1:10,1:10)
 > mydnn=dnearneigh(as.matrix(xy),d1=0,d2=50)
 > mydnn
Neighbour list object:
Number of regions: 100
Number of nonzero links: 9896
Percentage nonzero weights: 98.96
Average number of links: 98.96
I assume to have 100*100-100=9900 links.

 > m01=nb2mat(mydnn,style="B")
 > apply(m01,1,sum)

It seems that the first and the last points are not linked. I have choose a 
value of d2 very high, and the distance between this two points is only 
sqrt(162)

Any ideas ?
Thanks
