Old news...the "don't run small ring / small cog" advice is almost run of the mill advice wilth all setups regardless of vintage, brand and model.
There are exceptions...it's just a general rule of thumb. Large to large sticks up on the radar as well...
However, in your case you mentioned the problem occurs with your second cog up...normally I don't expect the problem to continue once out of the smallest cog.
It's probably been discussed many time over here and elsewhere - likely noted in a Sutherland's manual as well. Try searching the archives...

> I have discovered that when on the small ring and smallest two cogs the chain
> rubs the inside surface of the large ring. It's a Stronglight 99, 48/28 with
> shortest BB spindle projection on right side possible. Is that a known issue
> with wide range double arrangements? I haven't calculated the geometry (will
> undoubtedly do so), and I know that on this particular frame I skewed the BB
> alignment a skosh, in a direction that would exacerbate this issue
> (fortunately I know why). Still, I wonder if this is part and parcel of such
> a large difference in the diameters of the two rings. Anyone?
