My hound (my guess is all 5.2's, although I've only checked a couple) has two holes, and the trap lines mount to the top, while the shrouds mount to the bottom. b/c of the few inches of separation the shrouds and trap lines never touch.
Thanks for the heads-up. I'll try to test it thoroughly.

i'm guessing you have swept spreaders on your 5.2? my 1982 5.2 has straight spreaders and just the 1 mast hound hole for a D-ring shackle that originally carried just 3 eyelets, as each sidestay swage also carried the single crew trap line that was standard back in the day, however about 1983 helm trapping became common it and as extra trap lines were added to the hound it got crowded up there and nacra enlarged the mast hound to accept another hole specifically for trap lines
