Daryl,

The API that changed was the color fill routine, so any FDF that defines
a color fill could crash (actually depends on how the OS treats 
the wrong number of arguments being passed).

When you click on "more", you will see the color fill for TMPF.

I'm going to pack up the 5.11.1 release over the next 2 days,
but can send you the 5.11.1 Garp binary.
