I had numerous cases, even very trivial applications, where this warning
popped up. Never bothered to track down the real problem in the OS or in
POSE but IMO it's most definitely not a bug in your source. 

I usually simply disable this POSE warning and everything is fine.
 
Regarding possible changes in the memory manager data structure in future
releases, IMHO it's much more likely that a new OS version introduces some
other incompatibilities. 

BTW, the same applies for some of the newer Debug ROMs (cf. the recent
thread about setting the form ptr to some strange value, with all associated
problems, or cf. the strange colors in the 3.5 color Debug ROM).

If Palm continues this philosophy, I'll end up testing my applications on
Release ROMs only. 

A Debug ROM, just like a Debug DLL on Windows, should have 
- debug symbols
- asserts
- verbose error messages
and apart from that behave identical to the release version.
