Is the platform OS4.39?

Is it just a 4.70 alpha thing, that is is 4.69 or earlier OK?

If it is to do with the current alpha then try adding the following line to
!Run after the existing dynamic area set up lines.

Set StrongED$UseDA 0

The result should look like this.

| Don't use dynamic areas on RISC OS 3.1x or 5.xx.
If StrongED$OSVsn >= 350 Then Set StrongED$UseDA 1 Else Set StrongED$UseDA 0
If StrongED$OSVsn >= 500 AND StrongED$OSVsn < 600 Then Set StrongED$UseDA 0
Set StrongED$UseDA 0
 
I have had assorted wierdnesses with OS4.39 on VRPC which disabling the use
of dynamic areas has evaded. I did reproduce a sort problem but not exactly
as described, the attempted sort operation stiffed StrongED on OS4.39 on
VRPC on Windows 7.
