Unfortunately, after O(a couple of hundred) messages I get a memory smash during Modula-3 (v 1.6) garbage collection. This only seems to happen when I accept Isis messages - I can, for example, send messages to another process written in C without difficulty. I know that this is not a lot to go on, but has anyone got any ideas about places to look? Otherwise, I guess it's back to C :-\.
