This is a different problem from Bernie's. Those two examples use a  
non-standard method that I invented to implement callback routines.  
By bad luck, it happened to work pre-Tiger, but is now seen to be a  
serious bug :-(

I have rewritten the examples to work properly in OS X 10.2, 10.3 and  
10.4, adding the comment:

/*
Modified May 2005 to use standard enterproc/exitproc.
The original version crashed in OS X 10.4
*/

You can probably work out the required changes, but if not, feel free  
to ask me for the new files [privately, not via the list, please].
