Wow, that's a tough one. Probably be easier to tell Mach to interpolate the rapids so that they are straight line motions. In instances where the tool may crash, you could replace the G00 with a high feedrate G01.

I have had this problem once in a while, usually when drilling bolt circles, but the easy solution is to use a higher rapid clearance plane so that the tool clears the clamps between holes.
