In 2006 when Brad wrote WPILIB and we wrote easyC for FRC we observed this issue and documented it in the help file. The problem is how the field switches to autonomous mode from disabled. The field starts out Disabled in Operator Control then is enabled and switched to Autonomous. So, for a brief amount of time the robot is enabled in operator control and may executes a couple lines of your operator control. I have not tested this on the 2008 field but I would assume it is the same based on the issues you are having.

We also don't recommend running operator control without a while(1) loop. If you check all of our examples for both Vex and FRC operator control is always in a while(1) loop.
