Ah, this is interesting! I had previously thought about ASLR, but then thought that it cannot affect executables as long as they merely sit on the hard disk. Your comment sheds new light on this aspect. Unfortunately, I have never been able to reproduce this behavior myself (only heard about it from testers) and currently it does not seem to be reproducible anywhere. This happened after I changed the Makefile from scc *.c to scc $(SRC) so it looks like John and a few others here in c.c. where right. It was most probably the order of objects passed to the linker. However, should the problem re-appear, I will definitely try what you suggested! Thanks! Nils -- Nils M Holm < n m h @ t 3 x . o r g > www.t3x.org
