L.S.

My 1186 running Koto broke inside \AR.UPDATE.RESOLUTION because it
gave TIMEREXPIRED? a smallnumber as argument.  Apparently the value in
the ARENTRY was not big enough for GETBASEFIXP.N to convert it into a
timer value(boxed number).

What is the best way to fix this?
Are there more places where the wrong access function was chosen?
