Yes, game compiles and runs just fine.  But when I use infix to examine
or manipulate some of my objects (not all, mind you... and those that
are affected don't seem to have any rhyme or reason, i.e. all objects
greater than a certain number or something) it crashes the interpreter.
Even odder, if I refer to an offending object via one of its name
property synonyms, it won't crash, but give me the desired info.  Only
when I use the object's proper (source) name does it crash on me.

I'm quite sure it's something I've done in my code, as no one else has
apparantly had any problems with infix.  I'm just trying to figure out
the best way to track it down, short of rebuilding my project piece by
piece until something I add causes the problem and I can finally focus
in on one source file or block of code.
