Correct bug in the object file output code leading to stack corruption
It turns out leaving a pointer to a stack allocated temporary in a
persistent data structure is not conducive to correct program operation.
Undo the export check setup in the object file output sequence so a
pointer to stack allocated memory is not left hanging when the function
returns. This seems to correct at least one mysterious crash bug, and
possibly others.
Thanks to Boisy Pitre for reporting the crash bug that led to this
discovery, as well as a previous crash bug that likely has the same
root cause.
Additional thanks to Ciaran Anscomb whose debugger wielding wizardry
revealed the exact location of this particular bit of unbrilliance.

Each line has the following structure: a zero-padded four-digit ASCII hex address, a colon separator, and one or more zero-padded two-digit hex values separated by commas. ASCII Hexadecimal format favors paragraph-aligned addresses (i.e. a least significant address nybble value of zero). During output, the number of hex values on each line are adjusted to align the address of the next line on a paragraph boundary. The sequence of addresses in the ASCII Hexadecimal file directly follows that of the source file; multiple ORG directives in the source code may result in out-of-sequence addresses in the ASCII Hexadecimal output.</P ><P >LWASM can output this format since version 4.10.</P ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="NAVFOOTER" ><HR ALIGN="LEFT" WIDTH="100%"><TABLE SUMMARY="Footer navigation table" WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="x27.html" ACCESSKEY="P" >Prev</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="index.html" ACCESSKEY="H" >Home</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="x36.html" ACCESSKEY="N" >Next</A ></TD ></TR ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" >DECB Binaries</TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="c21.html" ACCESSKEY="U" >Up</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" >Motorola S-Record</TD ></TR ></TABLE ></DIV ></BODY ></HTML >
