Nope. Using it standalone and through a Mathias. I'm up to 7.85. I got it to
work through TDE from Tech-Tools. No extra optimization flags either. Just
plain build and emulate. Could it be PIC dependent? I'm specifically using
the 16C73A emulation (even though the target chip will be a 73B - wish Tech
Tools supported the 73B!).

That's what I thought - portability.
