Use that. Start a search for the change that affects the behavior. Start
stripping out code you think is irrelevant from the original program.
Find the change that makes the problem go away. Split that change down
into smaller steps...

Although not showing in a simple program is a good lever for your own
debug, it also makes it a bad case for getting newsgroup help. It means
the problem involves something you don't know is relevant, so your
posting is unlikely to contain the key to the problem.
