I tried this and it seems to work fine (from within Gforth, the disassembler output was as expected), but then all hell break lose. I couldn't start the Finder any more, the software update that found something didn't react, and finally, the menu folded down (Mac OS X 10.5). I can confirm that this triggers a nasty Mac OS X bug. What we do for see <primitive> on x86_64 is: We start gdb, and advice it to produce an assembler dump of the region of the primitive. -- Bernd Paysan "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself" http://www.jwdt.com/~paysan/
