I'm trying to debug some kind of memory management problem.
Problem is, it refuses to give proper traceback information. In
Windows, it causes a reboot, which SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN in protected
mode. In DOS, it prints a general protection fault message, but no
"call frame traceback EIPs" which is decidedly odd. FSDB segfaults
itself on running the program; RHIDE simply silently exits to DOS on
attempting to so much as step into the program. When I modified the
code so that at certain checkpoints it would open a file, append some
info to the file, and close it again (so if it died between
checkpoints the file wouldn't be left truncated, but would be
readable), and of course the program began to work...*sigh*
