YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS! Got it!

The difference between when it works and when it does not work
is not the fact that you use ePosix or not, but the fact that
you compile with the option "exception_trace" or not. If you remove
the option "exception_trace" from your Xace file, gestalt should
work without crashing. The signature of a function in exception
trace mode is:

void T350f12(GE_call* ac, T0* C)

In non-trace mode it is:

void T350f12(T0* C)

Gec's mistake is to alway call the dispose routine with only
one argument (the Current object being disposed), even in
exception_trace mode.

(FYI, exception_trace is only partially implement in gec, and
does not work yet.)
