Odd, that part was hardly touched but I've removed it.

I think the 'rubber coating' layer messes up the looks of it since it is consistent across the length of the runway but would be silly for the stopways.

Running it under gdb, and setting a break point

Essentially from the lines of code -

556 freq = (ALsizei)freqf;
557 int error = alutGetError();
558 if (data == NULL || error != ALUT_ERROR_NO_ERROR) {
the 'data' is NULL, but even if it was not, additionally
'error' contains a value 518 (0x206)...
Again, I though I had read this before in a recent board
message, and thought a CVS 'fix' had been made, but now not
so sure...
At least it's not the latest CVS code, this code has been replaced by a
(supposedly) better check.

Flightgear on the Vista laptop also crashes with something that appears to be related to the sound patches, AND also every time that I exit. The XP box sees none of these problems. From this I now believe that the problem is that the Vista laptop is less tolerant of run-time errors than the XP box. As far as Sample_openal.hxx is concerned all I can guess from my debug sessions at is that there is some kind of a problem at the time that Rumble.wav is used and it is even possible that the problem is at the XML code level. It's not getting easier to track down. Although maybe it indicates an uninitialized variable or something like that. It might even be allocated memory that is reserved at an unrelated piece of code but that overwrites the section that gets freed by the soundmanager.
