This the same, units has enable $E-,

Now I know where is problem. But how solve them.

I cant simple remove all comp. I try to move my whole program. it use 
comp hundreds times.
I can't write from ground.

Is this possible to add special directive, that left the same behavior 
of comp under arm?
or any other hack?

Sorry for confusing.
For me it is the same problem: FPU
but when enable one switch, one bug disappear, but second is show.

Thx for explanation and patience.
