Maybe this could help you, too (posted to comp.arch.fpga by Amaury
Anciaux, who had a similar problem as you did). I suggested to him the 
same thing I did to you (i.e. check for the attributes with XDL), here 
is what he replied:

"The bus macro doesn't seem to lack anything, but I discovered that if I
route the concerned signal to a "pip" further to the left, the design
finally routes. So it seems that the PAR needs to have that first part
of the path to route the signal."
