    Odd behavior —Michael Ash
   I'm having a bit of trouble with dll and I was hoping someone kind on this list might be able to help me out.

        Re: Odd behavior —Toni Martinez-Colom
   I saw the same behavior some time ago when I worked on a pretty fat program (about 6KB compiled code). Sometimes it worked OK, then I removed my debug code (some cputs defined by macros) and it hanged miserably... I thought it was some kind of (...)

   (...) currently i believe there is some really subtle bug in malloc(), that shows up only under special circumstances. I experience similar problems with a fat kernel/application that disappear after adding one cputw(), making the binary a little (...) (25 years ago, 28-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
