Well, I've used hide() quite a bit with no problems - we're going to need
a LOT more information if this is truly a PLIB bug.

It crashes inside hide() ?

If so, it *MUST* be that the puObject you are calling it on is an
invalid pointer...all hide() does is access an internal member and call
puPostRefresh - and all THAT does is set a global.

However, if calling hide() causes it to die sometime later then
we could be looking at something complicated.

Could you get us a stack back-trace from the crash?   Or maybe
show us some source code?
