to reiterate what the documentation says, $F is recognized in TP mode but there 
is no such thing as FAR or NEAR calls in 32bit and 64bit flat memory models...

no, NEAR and FAR calls won't help with that... there is a flaw in the code that 
leads to misalignment of the data in some instances... it is either that or 
memory corruption which should not be happening if you are building with 
debugging enabled...
