chunk should never be 0x11.  Does this patch fix things for you?

If not, you might set a watchpoint on cc->dynamic_state to see when it gets 
set to 0x11, as that'll show where we have a pointer go awry.  (I fear that 
it may be one of the PMC_int_val( xxx )++ or -- bits in stack_push or 
stack_pop.)
