A little gem from omsvax ...

    "For example, probably the most serious bug, the integer divide bug,
    causes an incorrect result only when one of the operands is in
    memory.  An easy workaround is to just move this operand into
    a register before performing the operation."

Hey, of course.  All my compilers have options to do just that.
Don't yours? (hee-yuk)
