Why do I get timing violation associated with CK clock domain when implement multiple RLDRAM II interfaces sharing a single PLL and DLL?

Environment

BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
Description

When implementing multiple RLDRAM II interfaces sharing a single PLL and DLL on Stratix® III or Stratix IV in Quartus® II software version 11.1SP2, the CK/DK analysis may show false timing violations that should be cut. The false timing violations occur because each interface gives a different SDC clock name to the common clock buffer. Every new clock name results in a set of new timing paths, which are not covered by the existing false-path constraints.
