Why can't this mechanism be assembled?

I thought I knew about mechanism connections, but this example that I cooked up to train my colleagues has me stumped.

For some reason, I can't make a 6-DOF hexapod in Creo 2.0 M120:

What Creo magic am I missing here?

 

I notice that when I disable the "Allow regeneration values" on the slider joints, then I can assemble the green ee-platform to five out of the six blue links.  The last one will look like it is assembled, but any dragging will automatically disable it.  What gives?  Because if this is indeed working as intended, then Solidworks is head and shoulders above it when it comes to assembly and movement of components.

 

Please try the model and help me.  Is there some "assembly joint-satisfaction tolerance" setting that I should be relaxing?
