This was fixed in version 3.03a of Lattice … they were trying to "protect" the user from creating code that whould do a MOVE.L or MOVE.W from an odd address …. any pointer that was declared as pointing to anything other than char was & with 0xFFFFFFFE , since Amiga Include files use alot of APTR's this caused real problems with buffers etc… I don't think 'C' was ment to be a protective language (that's what LINT is for).
