KEY? madness

Hi,

We are using swiftx-pro for the 68332 target. Periodically we see weird
issues with KEY? from the BDM port. It can even cause the whole system to
crash. For example we often write a word like the following on the BDM
port for testing purposes.

: TTT BEGIN DO_SOMETHING 1000 MS KEY? UNTIL ;

Just today it was not working before lunch, I reloaded the target then
tried again and that did not work. I came back after lunch, I reloaded the
code onto the target and it worked great. This has happened on older
versions of swiftx as well as the latest version which is what we now
run. It has also happened on a number of different windows
computers. Currently, I'm at a loss for what to do. Does any one else
see this? Do you have any suggestions on how to fix it other than "go to
lunch"? Any suggestions on how top better diagnose the problem next time
it happens?

I have removed the DO_SOMETHING just to make sure it is not that and it
makes no difference. Also, when it was not working I tried key? alone from
the BDM port and it crashed the system.

Thanks,
Ben.
