   Nope. Far different bug.

   I was thinking about this bug that I just found in Teach 6.0.1, and
I'm not sure that my normal ways of locating the problem code would
work on a ROM 3 GS. Any programmer types want to verify that the byte
C2 appears at +16F8, +175F, +1782 and +17A8 into a toolset chunk of
memory length 2FC5? If not, it'll require some more work to fix this
on a rom 3.
