to
move(trip, _minmax[1].fasts[1].fast_trip, sizeof(fastid));
where fastid has a size of 4.
The compiler emits a "mov ax, 4" twice.
Absolutely no clue why. Use 4 (and loose portability) and it's OK.
Having fun decompiling code to mis-matched source, and given that all the
Borland Pascal compilers are simple one-pass programs, that turns out to
relatively easy! ;)

PS: And no I haven't got anything better to do.
