Here are some good refs I've found (I think the audioholics link, while talking about balanced connections, still does a nice job in explaining what's going on; ref'ed in the 990 thread I think):

There used to be something on Bryston's site too, but I can't find it at the moment.
And, if a balanced connection (interconnects) doesn't discriminate between even order and odd order distortion, why would a balanced design?
