Unless your using an altered version of AmigaBASIC, there will be problems with
AmigaBASIC on 32-bit Amigas. AmigaBASIC isn't 32-bit pure, it is only 24-bit
pure (it ported from a 24-bit Mac BASIC). AmigaBASIC used the "unused" 8-bits
for holding pointers.
Forcing AmigaBASIC to load only itself into CHIP memory, can bypass the
problems caused by loading AmigaBASIC into 32-bit memory areas. However, I'm
not sure if this works with Amigas with AGA, since their CHIP RAM is 32-bit.
