Possibly but, based on your description, I not convinced it's a bug in
StrongED. The abort address seems to be in the RMA so it may be a module
that's going wrong. Perhaps a utility that keeps track of open windows?

I'm running 4.70a11 on an ARMiniX with Alignment Exceptions turned on
and haven't seen this problem. Neither on the RPi3.

Could other ARMX6 users out there please try this and see if it's a
general problem?

What does a *Where after the abort report?

Cheers,
Fred.
