Hi Marc, hi Andy, Confirmed, it seems to be the MIXUPDATES option. Once again, I noticed it’s tricky to statically detect which dynamic function calls will perform updates. Obviously, in the given case, there was no updating code at all, so the error message was a bit misleading.
Feedback on the MIXUPDATES option is always welcome. I have just uploaded a new snapshot [1].
