As it turns out, casting the derived class object's address to a
pointer to the base class is what the problem was. I've never seen it
before, but it turned the contents of the pointer to junk. The base
class I was trying to cast it to was a virtual base class, and off the
top of my head , i'm thinking this could have been part of the problem.
