   Anyone have this problem?
     You try to set the event mask to something other than what it is and
     it crashes the system?

    Specifically SetEventMask(EveryEvent);

    I wrote my own code to manipulate address $144 (egads not hard coded
    addressing) and the event mask works fine.

    What's wrong with Apple's version? After poking around in memory after
    calling there seteventmask, i noticed that the actual queue address
    contents are screwed up!!?!?, and not the event mask address 144?

    Is it me, or what?
