This is a bit of an odd error.  The following bit of source code either 
segmentation faults, or reboots the computer:

#include <conio.h>

.
.
.
  

  putch('\n');

.
.
.

A putch('q'), however does not.

This is in a relatively large program, which hooks the serial port, and 
also displays to the screen using the routines in pc.h.  The code worked 
fine until a little while ago, when it suddenly started crashing on 
newlines being output.  I can't duplicate the problem in a smaller program.

I'm running version 1.12m2 in non DPMI mode.
