------
I am being terrorized by a very nasty bug. The problem is
as follows. As soon as a call a routine in the standard C
library (e.g time(), chdir(), getcwd()) my progam dies.
This error occured after I had added some code to my
working program. Step by step I removed the new code, but
the error still remained. I then compiled and linked the
very basic functions only (i.e the "shell"), with a call to
time(). That worked ok. I then relinked that .obj file with
the rest of my .obj files (no calls to this code however).
Believe it or not, but the program freaks out. It seems as
if there is an error in the linking process. Any suggestions
concerning the possible cause of these bugs will be highly
appreciated.
