 		 #143128 - use a cookie near the end of the stack?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
how about using a cookie near the end of the stack?
like:
Save This Code
  volatile unsigned int __idata __at(0xf8) stack_cookie; /* for 256 byte idata */
and occasionally checking whether that variable still holds the value that you expect it to hold?
