Thanks for trying it out and confirming the bug (thanks to the rest of the
gang who did as well).  I haven't heard from Manx yet, I feel better now
about giving them another call now that I know it is repeatable.  This bug
does seem serious enough to render SDB's use dicey at best, though I
have been able to use it ok by avoiding doing a 't' command over 
strcpy(), strcat(), etc.  I'll let you know if I find out any more.
