Well, I just confirmed that I do indeed have a problem with bombs -- the
old setjmp/longjmp trick with important values in register variables. When
a blast occurs - the register values are incorrect and >BLAMMO< - (some
interesting effect).
Well, thinking quickly, I remembered the old MPW C trick of declaring
the suspect variables 'volatile' so that they aren't stored in registers.
This produced a happy message from the compiler:
warning:: 'volatile' not implemented (ignored)
I've run out of ideas. Have you got any?
