Could it be that your external function is not getting A5 set up correctly?

It probably is (since in theory all you're doing is calling a function in
memory from your parent program), but it wouldn't hurt to check.  Make sure
Think C is compiling your code so you can get at globals.  There might be
some glue that youy're just not seeing that is making it flakey.
