Hmm, I am using 2.40. I wonder if the Microchip folks know about the problem, and have fixed it in 2.44? Where did you get 2.44?

Here's an idea for someone with access to a 2006 controller:
Try compiling your code for the PIC18F8520 instead of the PIC18F8722 and see if that cures the problem. It'll still run on the '8520, but I wonder if it might fix some of the problems (if it is truly a compiler bug, maybe it is restricted to the '8722 compiler). Just a hunch...

If it's falling apart it's a mechanical problem. If it's spewing smoke it's a electrical problem.
If it's rampaging around destroying things it's a programming problem.
