No. I ran into the same thing. A search on Compuserve found a thread discussing this problem, so it appears that everyone has it. One user said he backed of the new SOM.DLL and it went away, but who knows what else that would affect. The response from IBM was something like "If you have this problem be sure to submit a problem report so we can prioritize it." Total BS in my opinion-- how many broken applications and out-of-work developers is the acceptable level before they fix things? I plan to back off fixpack 17 as soon as I finish backing up my disks.
