Recently, I've compiled one of my older Pascal programs (originaly developed in BP 7.0 Protected Mode) with the FPC 1.0.10 (GO32V2 target) to speed it up (the program makes a lot of computations on quite huge matrices). I used the DOS-based IDE on pure DOS 6.0 and the IDE-embedded copiler (1.0.10 as the 'about' dialog says)
The source compiles without any errors, but when the program runs from within the IDE, it crashes immediatelly with the error code 216. What is quite surprising, the same EXE (i.e. compiled with the IDE) runs fine when I run it just from the DOS prompt. What could be a reason ?

Best regards,
