Application Binary Interface (ABI), calling conventions and the like

[FORTRANS]

Hi,

   For some reason, it crashed on my P-MMX.  (Right,
like I expected an error message?  <g>)  It did run
on my Sony, so the CPUID code is not what locked it
up earlier.  (Presumably.)  Though there was an odd
pause the first time I ran this one.
