I appologise for the rudeness of my reply last night, there was no need for it, my IRC network was DDoSed last night, and 3 of our servers went down.. but you dont need my life story.
You are right, there is a - in all exception lists, it just seemed odd that i used /os exception list.
If you can re-create the bug, would it be possible to see if /os exception list returns the same corrupted results?
Also, what version of GCC are you running? It may be a compiler issue.
