Two suggestions:

  1)  Your main problem is that you need to use the declaration:

      far float *ptr;

      I won't even try to explain what happens otherwise.

  2)  You really should use "ptr[i]" rather than "*(ptr+i)".  It effectively
      does the same thing, but it makes for much cleaner and much more
      readable code.
