Crumbs, this minor aside has blown up more than the original problem!
To get back on topic, it seems there's a bug with one of the node code
generators under -O2 and above. It's not something I've researched that
deeply, but I would like to see it fixed. First though we need to find
which node is malfunctioning.

Understood. Haven't I already mentioned something about MS approach
