Argh! I should have caught that one myself... But starting to modify a
code without knowing for sure what side effects one is causing tends to
make one overlooking even such straightforward things :-)

I think I'll also have to move the mc_chain variable into the code space to
be able to reference it after restoring ds. I hope this won't cause any
new problems.

Definitely at least in everything regarding the internals of x86 protected

Let's hope this was the last round!

Stefan.
