<div><style> BODY { font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12px; }</style>Thanks Bart,</div><div><br>
</div><div>I managed to get it to build after reinstalling the FPC compiler 3.0.4 - it seems it was getting confused between two different versions on my virtual machine - but after all that it does look like a bug in my new code. I've managed to get it to compile from a clean build and with a couple of modified files that don't do anything drastic, so now I'll try to isolate the issue and update my patch file. An overhauled peephole optimizer is no use if it breaks Linux!<br>
<br>
Thanks for the tips everyone.<br>

Works for me here.
