Hi Scott, thanks for the help, I'll further investigate. BUT: both the runtime AND the tool are compiled in non-debug mode. So in this case, neither of them should have the object cookie, thus the alignment should be the same. But, as I said, I am grateful for any clue and will check if there is some issue along these lines :) In any case, it seems to be inconsistent and should be fixed :)
