This is indeed odd! My first suspicion is a dislocated item-table, so I'll start with the following questions:

1. Which JSW-engine are you using?

(b) If JSW64, which variant?

JSW64 Variant V

2. What are the bytes at #8801 and #93D2? (they should be the same,
as they are the high byte of the item-table's base-address) #8801 = a4
#93d2 = a4 3. What are the bytes at #8803 and #8804? (low byte and high byte

of the address of the item-count)

#8803 = ca
#8804 = 85

4.(b) If using JSW64, what are the bytes at #8590 and #8591?

(should

be the same as the two bytes in #8803 and #8804)

#8590 = ca
#8591 = 81

So I assume patching the numbers so they match would be the solution,
but which number do I change? The 85 at #8804, or the 81 at # 8591?

I'll probably try them both tonight sometime, to see if it sorts the
prob, if not no doubt I'll be sure to return.
