Which means that a variant of the old problem is still in there.
We're very keen to track down this kind of problem - especially
when it is easily reproduced (as in this case).
Can you let me have a copy of the files please and I'll see if I can
track it down.
Let me know if the files are confidential and where I can grab them from.
(If confidential, be sure to delete hugs-bugs from the Cc list)

I regard these mysterious bugs as one of our most pressing problems
because they're so unpredictable. What's the point in using a
typesafe language if your compiler occasionally randomly corrupts
your code?
