this is very funny indeed. Does this happen also when you direct the
output to a file?
Can you provide a orc/sco pair or a .csd file which produces the problem?
What unofficial version are you using?

this is even funnier :) the babo sources are practically identical,
save some differences in comments or in inlining functions...
You got me really curious now :)
