Look at ArgBlob, it is probably a struct with some member only 8 or 16 bit size. On nearly any other architecture this gets padded to 32 bits, on m68k minimum padding of struct members is 16 bits. If thats is the case its a bug in the sanity check. Hth Richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
