Yes, I thought of that. But when I comment out the call to "optimize()", no exception is signalled. So I think it's unlikely. I'm thinking it might be an endianness issue. Do you folks test a lot on big-endian platforms? Just the kind of thing that affects bit-string manipulation. I'm going to run the same software on an Intel machine and see what happens.
