This assertion is there because we align the start of an object with the first reference (which is in front of the object header). The fix for this is to modify the code to align non-array objects on 8 byte boundaries even if they have an odd number of reference words (yuck). This requires changing the algorithm for determining object size and heap block size, as well as "skip word" handling, etc. (blah blah gnarly internals). However, I'm curious why double alignment is 8 under Cygwin but only 4 under Linux but both are x86. Obviously that can't derive only from the hardware. So for now I'd say just comment out that assertion and proceed. If you get funny floating point results then we'll know why :-) -Archie __________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * CTO, Awarix * http://www.awarix.com
