Good to know.
I fixed this issue now. There were issues with #pragma aux for OW and
for GCC inline asm.
The si parameter for XMScopy was not passed correctly for OW (likewise
for DS for GCC),
which meant that most XMScopy calls failed. However it would work by

portion to XMS, though it is of a different k
