No, that's not what I'm saying. Clearly the "fix" does work because I don't think anyone has seen the 8.3 volt problem since IFI published the new linker script.

I just thought it was interesting that a bug in my code could induce the same symptom that teams saw two years ago. Although I know how to fix it, I'm not sure I know exactly what caused it. For my own edification I'd like to track it down because it's not obvious to me what is causing it by examining the source code.
