From your prior comments, it sounds like we just need to completely clear the RAM on reboot. Could we make the changes to our projects to do this, or would it just be easier to replace a particular file with the mods in it already?

BTW, I fully understand your need to know exactly why this problem happens and just knowing how to fix it isn't enough.
As far as I can tell, there are no bugs in my code. The bug I referred to was fixed long ago and the fix incorporated before I released any code. If interested, it's the six lines of assembly under the "initialize memory to all zeros" comment in ifi_frc.c/_startup().
