 DT> Can you give some specific examples of what Win95 is doing and the

 Yes, sure, although not the actual code, as it's been changed to take care
 of the problem.  The problem was that I was inadvertently reading code from
 outside my allocated memory.  Win95 gave me a GPF; OS/2 Warp did not.
 
 eg.
 
 int main( int argc, char **argv )
 {
 	.
	.	[ setup code ]
	.
	p=( char * )malloc( 239 ) ;		// Allocate space for 239 bits
	p2=( char * )malloc( 72 ) ;		// Allocate space for 72 digits
	
	.
	.	[ bunch of 239-bit binary to 72-digit decimal conversion code ]
	.
	   
	p3=( char * )malloc( 239 ) ;		// Allocate space for bit copy
   	/*
	 *	The next line and the following one are GPF enabled (in Win95),
	 *	but not in OS/2.
	*/
   	memcpy( p3, p+extraBits, 239 ) ;	// Copy over new bitstream
	write( handle, p3, 239 ) ;
	
	.
	.	[ bunch of other stuff ]
	.
 }
