In your previous post you were saying that the software did not run under
2.0 on an A3000.  Did it by chance have a 68040 board in it.  I had a 
similar problem, and found that it did not have some sort of FPU code 
installed (or running???).  Why this caused a crash, I have no idea, since
I was not even running any FPU instructions. Everything was strictly FFP.
Anyway, have you tried it on different A3000's?  Perhaps there is a program
which is commonly run under 2.0 (ARexx for example) that comes on a 3000,
and is not running on the other machines. 
  In short, it's probably not a hardware thing.  Just software and
coincidence.
