This sounds like the scenario, although I've never seen it
before. I can understand if you process another queued event
with a RETURN, but with a RETALL!? Seems weird to me.

Also, running my (award winning!) FSC_SURFACE program produces
a boat load of underflow warnings. What is that about? And why,
RSI, can't we turn these damn things off easily?
