Could anyone make comments on the following problem:

Basically we are using Turbo Pascal V1.1 on Mac II, system 6.02, MacsBug 6.0.
When compiling a small test program which uses the NewUnit supplied by Borland
to use the Palette manager after 3-4 recompilations the system crashes with
the same error - 'Buss Error at $0000BB96'.
The address of the buss error is repeatable for every time the crash occurs.
When checking the code of the test program this address is way past the
end of the program.  Could this be in the Turbo runtime system/ newunit ?
Any suggestions ?

Thanks in Advance
