My thoughts exactly.  :-)

I'm still using ORCA/C 1.3, because 2.0 to 2.0.3 are too buggy for my
taste (code generation bugs, optimizer bugs, library bugs).

However, I have not encountered anything resembling memory and/or disk
corruption.  I'm using ORCA/C 2.0.3 (which calls itself "2.0.2")
semi-regularly for selected projects, with the ORCA/Shell version
supplied with it.

I agree with Dave Tribby's postings - the problem is almost certainly
elsewhere.  I'd suggest your own code, a buggy INIT/desk accessory, a
corrupted file in ORCA, a faulty accelerator, etc.
