Re: Lily crashes when \fontsize goes over a certain value

[Rick Hansen (aka RickH)]

Oops, anything that begins with \var in this example are my own variables,
also the function #inner-page is also a mod for my own use.  But those are
not the issue, I saw some recent other posts on a crash related to
"fffffff8" earlier this week.  Maybe this is related?  "fffffff8" sounds
like a negative number which would make it an invalid memory location on
WindowsXP?
