That is a helpful start. However, I don't think there is anything in my own
code that is doing this. Since my previous release did not have this
problem, and I have changed almost nothing in my own code, I believe the
culprit is elsewhere. So I wonder if there is something in the way PRC 2.0
sets up multi-segment apps which is causing the problem: would the fact that
I now have multiple segments require some sort of clean up on application
exit trigger this situation? Or, is there anything in the 3.5 SDK that
could cause a problem like this in a 3.3 flash rom environment (unlikely, I
think, but I am just exploring)? Has anyone else installed PRC 2.0
multi-segment apps in flash rom successfully?
