mmh i've upgraded to last nite's snapshot and now some weird things are going 
on :=P i was trying to test the snapshot with the testsuite ive made some 
time ago (its somewhat cleaned up now too so i'll upload that once it works 
...might be useful at some point) and some things that worked previously now 
stopped working :/

1) i've splitted the testprograms into small pieces which load each other by
printing "load"file",8"/"run" on the screen and placing some returns in 
keybuffer...that worked fine before, now it like 50% of the time makes it 
crash or behave weird :) i think thats because the c-program doesnt restore 
certain zp (or other?) locations that are needed by the basic interpreter.

2) to determine the next program to load, each program scans the directory for 
its own filename, and then one further...all using the posix routines which 
i've posted some time ago. (and which seem to work ok according to a handful 
ppl)...well, they dont work anymore :=P the readdir function seems always to 
return NULL...uhmz

oh well...someone bite me if this is a vice related problem...he :=P the 
problem is so weird it wouldnt make me wonder if its a vice bug :)

whatever, i basically just wanted to ask if there any know problems atm, maybe 
a certain optimization i could try to disable, i dont know :)

also has anybody used those posix-dir routines with a (real) 1581 yet? (that 
testsuite is running off a 1581 image). maybe they *really* dont work 
there...i doubt it, but you never know :)

gpz

oh another possible source of the problem could be changes in cbm_read and 
friends...anything done in that area lately?
