Hmm... I've had to go back to 1.07 due to this.

As an aside, it also triggers what MiNT reports to be a hardware error when
my login process is run under it (just as it checks the password, for some
reason. The same source runs purfectly when compiled on other m68k machines.
I must admit that it doesn't run correctly when run in TT-RAM under older
versions of MiNT for some reason (I've never been able to find out why),
though it doesn't crash, merely can't match the password.
